Studies on the parasites of zebras. IV. Cylicodontophorus reineckei n.sp. (Nematoda: Strongylidae) from the Burchell's zebra, Equus burchelli antiquorum H. Smith, 1841 and the mountain zebra, Equus zebra hartmannae Matschie, 1898.
A new species of nematode, Cylicodontophorus reineckei, was collected from Burchell's zebra, Equus burchelli antiquorum H. Smith, 1841, in both the Etosha National and Kruger National Parks and from mountain zebra, Equus zebra hartmannae Matschie, 1898, in the Namib Naukluft Park in South West Africa/Namibia. These nematodes have an external leaf-crown with longer elements than those of the internal leaf-crown and a well-developed dorsal gutter. The very well-developed oesophageal funnel is both wider and deeper than the buccal capsule.
