title: [The systematic position of Hymenolepididae (Cestoda) from Australian marsupials].
abstract: A review of Hymenolepididae from Australian Marsupialia is given. These cestodes are transmitted out of the genus Hymenolepis, into which they were previously included. 3 species of them are transmitted to the genus Rodentolepis, and 7 species are arranged as a new genus Potorolepis. The diagnosis of Potorolepis and a list of species included are given. Possible phylogenetic relations of the genus Potorolepis with nearest groups of cestodes are discussed.
