Abstract

Two new species of spiruroid nematodes in birds from Kangean Island, Indonesia are reported: Diplotriaena anthreptis sp. nov. is found from the abdominal cavity of Anthreptes malacensis malacensis. The new species is similar to D. ozouxi, D. bargusinica, D. delta, D. isabellina and D. obtusa in the size of tridents and the length of spicules. However, it differs from the five similar species in the structure of the tridents, in the morphology of the right spicule, in the spicule ratio and in the size of the eggs. Acuaria irhami sp. nov. is described based on two male specimens from under the gizzard lining of Dicrurus hottentottus jentincki. The new species can be distinguished easily from all congeners except from A. microecae, in having equal rather than subequal or dissimilar spicules. However, the new species can be differentiated from A. microecae in the number of postanal papillae, in the median preanal papilla and in the length of the cordons.
