Maximum width of strobila at pregravid proglottides, 1.29 - 1.55 mm (av. 1.43 mm, n = 3). Scolex (Figs 1A-B) trapezoidal, clearly distinguished from neck; 246 - 349 (av. 299, n = 5) long, with maximum width 215 - 353 (av. 291, n = 5) at level of suckers. Rostellum with large discoid anterior part, gradually tapering to posterior end, 192 - 304 (av. 257, n = 5) long and 157 - 192 (av. 175, n = 5) wide. Rostellar sheath with thick muscular wall, 183 - 233 (av. 217, n = 5) long and 157 -188 (av. 169, n = 5) wide, reaching to posterior end of scolex. No fully-preserved rostellar crown present. Fig. 1. Pseudangularia europaea sp.n. A, B - scoleces; C - diagrammatic presentation of a rostellar hook demonstrating measurements taken; D - rostellar hooks. Scale-bars: A, B - 100/*; D - 50/z. Rostellar hooks arranged in three definite levels forming festoons with 5-6 hooks in each (Figs 4A-B); hook guard (Fig. ID) with irregular margins and considerably larger than blade; handle straight or slightly curved. Rostellar hooks measure (n = 4): a = 45 - 48 (av. 46), b = 49-52 (av. 51), c = 14 (av. 14), d = 22-31 (av. 27) (a, b, c and d as shown in Fig. 1C); hooks in more posterior position appear to have shorter guard (e.g. 22) than those positioned more anteriorly (e.g. 31) and in between (e.g. 26 - 27) Suckers small, round, with diameter 85 - 116 (av. 102, n = 18). Neck 76 -134 (av. 105, n = 5) long. Proglottides (Figs 2A-C) craspedote, wider than long even when
