Two filarioid nematodes, Litomosoides andersoni n. sp. and Litomosoides ctenomyos n. sp. (Nemata: Onchocercidae), are described from the mesenteries of the subterranean rodent Ctenomys opimus (Rodentia: Hystrichognathi) collected on the altiplano of Bolivia. Specimens collected near Rancho Huancaroma (Oruro Dept.) in 1984 and 1986 can be recognized as undescribed by the structures of the spicules and stoma and the shape of the ovijector. This record represents the first time members of the genus Litomosoides have been recovered from rodents of the family Ctenomyidae; this also represents the first published report of these nematodes from mammals in Bolivia.
从玻利维亚高原采集的地下啮齿动物奥氏栉鼠(啮齿目:豪猪亚目)的肠系膜中,发现了两种丝状线虫,分别为新种安德森里特莫丝线虫(Litomosoides andersoni n. sp.)和新种栉鼠里特莫丝线虫(Litomosoides ctenomyos n. sp.)(线虫纲:盘尾丝虫科)。1984年和1986年在万卡罗马牧场(奥鲁罗省)附近采集的标本,根据其交合刺、口器结构以及排卵器形状可认定为新物种。该记录首次表明里特莫丝线虫属成员在栉鼠科啮齿动物中被发现;这也是这些线虫在玻利维亚哺乳动物中的首次公开报道。
