Cosmocercoides himalayanus sp. nov. (Nematoda, Cosmocercidae) from the large intestine of Duttaphrynus himalayanus (Amphibia, Anura) from Dehradun, India is described and illustrated. Cosmocercoides himalayanus sp. nov. represents the 21st species assigned to the genus and the 9th species from the Oriental biogeographical region. Cosmocercoides himalayanus sp. nov. differs from the previously described Oriental species in number and position of rosette papillae; it is the only species possessing 24 or more rosette papillae to have 4 postcloacal papillae. In addition, a list of species assigned to Cosmocercoides is provided; however, C. fotedari Arya, 1992 is removed from the genus and until further study is considered a species inquirenda.
描述并图示了采自印度德拉敦喜马拉雅蟾蜍(两栖纲,无尾目)大肠内的喜马拉雅新种科斯莫尾线虫(线虫纲,科斯莫尾科)。喜马拉雅科斯莫尾线虫新种是该属的第21个物种,也是东洋生物地理区的第9个物种。喜马拉雅科斯莫尾线虫新种与先前描述的东洋物种在玫瑰花结乳头的数量和位置上有所不同;它是唯一具有24个或更多玫瑰花结乳头且有4个泄殖腔后乳头的物种。此外,还提供了一份归入科斯莫尾线虫属的物种清单;然而,1992年的福氏科斯莫尾线虫被从该属中移除,在进一步研究之前被视为一个有待研究的物种。
