Extract

Dermatoxys hispaniensis n.sp., collected from the intestine of hares and wild rabbits is described, and details are given of the cephalic anatomy. As far as our knowledge goes, this is the first record of Dermatoxys in Spain and also in the leporine species of Europe.

A key for identifying the species of Dermatoxys is provided, based on the available data.
