Ophiotaenia sp.

Site of infection: intestine.

Recruitment: ingestion.

Distribution: Cuba: Provincia Habana, Provincia Pinar del Río ( Martínez et al. 1982).

No specimens in collections.

Remarks: Specimens collected in Cuba were immature; this condition precluded its specific determination. To date, the only species of Ophiotaenia recorded in Cuba as parasite of amphibians is Ophiotaenia bufonis Pérez-Vigueras, 1942 , in the “bufo” Peltophryne peltocephala ( Pérez-Vigueras 1942; Freze & Rysavy 1976; de Chambrier et al. 2006).
