LUNASCHI, Lía I.  y  DRAGO, Fabiana B.. First record of Neodiplostomum travassosi (Digenea: Diplostomidae) in Argentina. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2005, vol.76, n.1, pp.97-100. ISSN 2007-8706.

Neodiplostomum travassosi Dubois, 1937 (Diplostomidae, Diplostominae) is redescribed and ilustrated based on the study of specimens collected from the intestine of Polyborus plancus (Miller) (Falconidae) and Phalacrocorax brasilianus (Gmelin) (Phalacrocoracidae), captured in Formosa province, Argentina. The original description of this species was based on specimens collected from Strigiformes and Piciformes in Brazil. Morphology and dimensions of specimens described in this paper agree with the original description. These represent two new host records and a new geographical record.
