Description of Hypocristata tercera n. sp. (Heligmonellidae, Nippostrongylinae) a parasite of the small intestine of Sigmodon hispidus (Rodent, Sigmodontinae) from Venezuela. Two other species were described in the genus, both from Colombia and parasitic in Sigmodontinae. H. thomosomysi Durette-Desset, 1970, a parasite of Thomasomys sp. has about the same number of cuticular ridges at mid-body but differs by ridges having chitinoid struts, a caudal bursa pattern of type 2-2-1 (vs 1-3-1). H. anguillula Durette-Desset, 1970, a parasite of Sigmodontomys alfari (= Nectomys alfari) has the same caudal bursa pattern (type 1-3-1) but differs by the presence of ridges at mid-body in both sexes (absent at that level in H. tercera) and by ridges having chitinoid struts in female. This is the first report of the genus Hypocristata Durette-Desset, 1971 in Venezuela and in the genus Sigmodon (Sigmodontinae).
隐冠线虫属新种Hypocristata tercera的描述(希勒线虫科,类圆线亚科),寄生于委内瑞拉硬毛棉鼠(啮齿目,棉鼠亚科)小肠。该属已描述的另外两个物种均来自哥伦比亚,寄生于棉鼠亚科。1970年命名的托马斯棉鼠隐冠线虫H. thomosomysi,寄生于托马斯棉鼠属物种,虫体中部角质嵴数量相近,但角质嵴具几丁质样支柱,尾翼类型为2-2-1(对比1-3-1)。1970年命名的阿尔氏棉鼠隐冠线虫H. anguillula,寄生于阿尔氏棉鼠(= 水栖棉鼠),尾翼类型相同(1-3-1型),但两性虫体中部均有嵴(H. tercera该部位无嵴),且雌虫角质嵴具几丁质样支柱。这是1971年命名的隐冠线虫属在委内瑞拉以及棉鼠属(棉鼠亚科)中的首次报道。
