sufficient number of bats were secured for parasitological sectioning, namely in 104 (33%) of 315 bats belonging to 4 species (M. myotis, M. blythi oxygnathus, E. serotinus, R. ferrumequinum). Both the extensity and intensity of M. grisea is considered to be high, the latter varying from 61 to 83 tapeworms in individual host species. Vampirolepis acuta (Rudolphi, 1819) nov. comb, was found in five host species (M. myotis, M. nattereri, N. noctula, E. serotinus, P. austriacus). Of a total of 316 host specimens 68 (21. 5%) were found to harbour V. acuta
