Data are presented on bat trematodes in Italy, whose previous list included only the following five species: Plagiorchis vespertilionis, Plagiorchis asper, Mesotretes peregrinus, Prosthodendrium chilostomum, Prosthodendrium longiforme. Between 1945 and 1981, 289 bats were examined belonging to 13 species. A total of twelve trematode species were identified, nine of which are recorded for the first time in Italy: Lecithodendrium linstowi, Lecithodendrium granulosum, Lecithodendrium rotundum, Prosthodendrium herardovae, Prosthodendrium hurkovaae, Prosthodendrium parvouterus, Pycnoporus heteroporus, Matovius rhinolophi, Parabascus lepidotus. For each parasite species, hosts, localities and number of specimens/host are reported. Special attention is devoted to P. vespertilionis with description of specimens remarkably different from the type form, to L. linstowi for peculiar specimens from Rhinolophus hipposideros, and to M. rhinolophi with additions to the original description especially concerning the vitelline glands' structure. Pycnoporus macrolaimus, identified in a collection of bat trematodes of the Institute of Parasitology of the University "La Sapienza" of Rome, is also recorded for the first time in Italy.
本文展示了意大利蝙蝠吸虫的数据，其先前的记录仅包括以下五个物种：蝙蝠斜睾吸虫、粗糙斜睾吸虫、奇异中睾吸虫、唇口前殖吸虫、长形前殖吸虫。1945年至1981年间，共检查了属于13个物种的289只蝙蝠。总共鉴定出12种吸虫，其中9种是在意大利首次记录：林氏枝腺吸虫、颗粒枝腺吸虫、圆形枝腺吸虫、赫氏前殖吸虫、胡氏前殖吸虫、小外盘前殖吸虫、异孔厚唇吸虫、菊头蝠马托吸虫、鳞皮副巴斯吸虫。报告了每种寄生虫的宿主、产地以及每个宿主的标本数量。特别关注了蝙蝠斜睾吸虫，描述了与模式形态明显不同的标本；关注了林氏枝腺吸虫，因其来自菊头蝠的特殊标本；还关注了菊头蝠马托吸虫，对其原始描述进行了补充，特别是关于卵黄腺的结构。在罗马“La Sapienza”大学寄生虫学研究所的蝙蝠吸虫收藏中鉴定出的巨口厚唇吸虫，也是在意大利首次记录。
