Extract

1. A progenetic metacercaria of Phyllodistomum lesteri sp.nov. is found encysted in the fresh-water shrimps, Palaemon asperulus von Marten and P. nipponensis de Haan.

2. A systematic description is made of this new species including general characteristics of the family, subfamily and genus and a list of the existing 29 phyllodistomes.

3. In general, the new form resembles Pleurogenes medians with regard to its progenetic development.

4. Feeding experiments suggest that two species of fish, Odontobutis obscura and Pelteobagrus fulvidraco, and a species of toad, Bufo bufo asiaticus, are not the final hosts of Phyllodistomum lesteri sp.nov.
