Extract
Thelandros (Parapharyngodon) tyche sp. n. (Oxyuroidea: Pharyngodonidae) is described from the caecum of the lizard, Agama stellio in Lebanon. It differs from the closest known species by the length of its spicule and the size of the eggs.
Abbreviata adonisi sp. n. (Physalopteroidea : Physalopteridae) is described from the stomach of the same species of lizard. It differs from the closest related species by the length of its oesophagus and the number and disposition of genital papillae.
