Ackertia globulosa sp. n. (Nematoda: Filarioidea) is described from the pulmonary arteries of the striped mouse, Lemniscomys striatus striatus (L.), in Kenya. Distinguishing features are the small size of the adults; the short left spicule and arrangement of the caudal papillae (3 pairs preanal, 4 pairs postanal) of the male; small projecting lobes on the tail of the females; and 10 to 12 refractile globules in the microfilarial sheath. The microfilariae are found in the skin, mostly of the ear. The probable intermediate host is a hard tick, Haemaphysalis leachi.
球形阿克线虫新种（线虫纲：丝虫总科）是在肯尼亚条纹小鼠（Lemniscomys striatus striatus (L.)）的肺动脉中发现并加以描述的。其鉴别特征包括：成虫体型小；雄虫左交合刺短，尾乳突排列方式为（肛前3对，肛后4对）；雌虫尾部有小的突出叶；微丝蚴鞘膜中有10至12个折光性小球。微丝蚴见于皮肤，主要在耳部。可能的中间宿主是硬蜱，即李氏血蜱。
