Check-list of the valid genera of Dilepididae (Cestoda, Cyclophyllidaea), their synonyms and hosts.
The revised family Dilepididae contains 102 valid genera, 11 new genera included (Bona 1994 a,b, in press). The synonyms, old and new ones, and the sub-genera raised to generic rank are 41. The revision of the family was undertaken as a contribution to the "IIP Keys to the Cestode Parasites of Vertebrate" and with the intention to provide new elements for future suprageneric systematics of the group.
