Abstract

Rats are important reservoirs of zoonotic diseases. They constitute a source of morbidity to man. Searching for helminths of rats that have zoonotic importance in Assiut Governorate, the present work revealed two cestodes: Hymenolepis diminuta, which showed some congenital anomalies, and Mathevotaenia, which is a zoonotic cestode of the family Anoplocephalidae. Rats were also infected by a nematode Syphacia spp < /em>. The present work is the first record for the presence of Mathevotaenia symmetrica (Baylis, 1927), Akhumian, 1946 and Mathevotaenia skrjabini Spassky, 1949 in Assiut Governorate. It is also the first record for the presence of two new species of Mathevotaenia viz. Mathevotaenia microcephala sp < /em>. nov. and Mathevotaenia assiuti sp < /em>. nov., the two new species are described and their structural characters are discussed
