Taenia sp. {Taenia "hydatigena III"(MHNG-123/25) Intermediate host: ruminants ? Host: Canis familiáris Description: Measurements of the small hooks are: TL 155 to 163 urn (mean: 159), PCL 86 to 97 urn (mean: 92), ACL 101 to 116 urn (mean: 109), BL 85 to 96 pm (mean: 90), BAL 61 to 72 pm (mean: 69), GL 54 to 69 pm (mean: 61), TW 86 to 88 pm (mean: 87), PEL 20 to 37 (mean: 30). The large hooks are 236 to 246 urn (mean: 243) long (TL), PCL 142 to 148 pm (mean: 144), ACL 134 to 139 pm (mean: 136), BL 113 to 119 pm (mean: 117), BAL 123 to 130 pm (mean: 126), GL 66 to 72 urn (mean: 70), TW 91 to 94 pm (mean: 92), PEL 23 to 33 urn (mean: 27). The blade of the small hooks is longer and more gracile than those of T. hydatigena. The blade of the large hook is longer than that of the basis and the guard is slender and a bit lengthened. Remark: A comparison of the total lengths measured by various authors for the T. hydatigena group is given in Table 1.

(originally identified as Taenia, selousi, MHNG-124/28 and MHNG-124/29), Intermediate host: Rhabdomys pumilo ? Host: Felis silvestris Description: Small hooks: TL 203 to 211 pm (mean: 206), PCL 120 to 128 (mean: 123), ACL 100 to 107 urn (mean: 103), BL 90 to 94 urn (mean: 92) BAL 110 to 119 urn (mean: 114), GL 44 to 50 pm (mean: 46), TW 88 to 92 pm (mean: 89), PEL 46 to 50 pm (mean: 48). Large hooks: TL 316 to 326 pm (mean: 321), PCL 200 to 210 urn (mean: 205), ACL 139 to 146 pm (mean: 142), BL 121 to 130 pm (mean: 126), BAL 191 to 201 pm (mean: 195), GL 61 to 70 pm (mean: 65), TW 108 to 117 pm (mean: 113), PEL 50 to 58 urn (mean: 53). Remarks: Total length of the hooks presented in this paper has larger values than those of T. selousi were published by others (Table 1).
