Carettacola hawaiiensis n. sp. (Trematoda: Spirorchidae) is described from the hepatic vessels of the green turtle, Chelonia mydas (L.), in Hawaii. The new species differs from any previously described species of Carettacola in size, placement of vitellaria, and shape and placement of Laurer's canal. The genus Haemoxenicon Martin and Bamberger, 1952, becomes a synonym of Carettacola Manter and Larson, 1950. Haemoxenicon stunkardi Martin and Bamberger, 1952, is transferred to the genus Carettacola Manter and Larson, 1950, and becomes Carettacola stunkardi n. comb. An emended generic diagnosis for Carettacola is given along with a key to the species.
夏威夷凯瑞吸虫新种(吸虫纲:旋宫科)是从夏威夷绿海龟(蠵龟)的肝血管中发现并描述的。该新物种在大小、卵黄腺位置以及劳勒氏管的形状和位置方面与之前描述的任何凯瑞吸虫物种都有所不同。1952年的血栖吸虫属(Haemoxenicon)Martin和Bamberger成为1950年的凯瑞吸虫属(Carettacola)Manter和Larson的同义词。1952年的史氏血栖吸虫(Haemoxenicon stunkardi)Martin和Bamberger被转移到1950年的凯瑞吸虫属(Carettacola)Manter和Larson,并成为史氏凯瑞吸虫(Carettacola stunkardi)新组合。文中给出了凯瑞吸虫属的修订后的属诊断以及物种检索表。
