Les deux Gasteropodes Prosobranches Nassa incrassata et Pisania maculosa hebergent la metacercaire, libre, de Lepidauchen stenostoma . La description de cette derniere est donnee de facon detaillee. L’adulte a ete trouve en Mediterranee chez deux Labrides : Julis giofredi et Crenilabrus pavo . Sa description est completee par l’observation d’une vesicule seminale externe et d’un receptacle seminal. Elle est attribuee a la super-famille des Lepocreadioidea , famille des Lepocreadiidae , sous… 

A redescription ofLepidauchen stenostoma Nicoll, 1913 (Digenea), and a reassessment of the status of the genusLepidauchen Nicoll, 1913

The type, and only valid species, L. stenostoma, is redescribed using material fromLabrus merula from Corsica, and other nominal species are discussed, but none are considered valid within this genus.

A new acanthocolpid cercaria (Digenea) from Cantharus dorbignyi (Prosobranchia) in the Western Mediterranean

A new cercaria is recorded from the prosobranch snail Cantharus dorbignyi from the sublittoral region off the coast of Corsica, and Morphological and circumstantial evidence suggests that this cerbaria may be a species of the genus Tormopsolus.

On the morphology and life-history of Lepidapedon elongatum (Lebour, 1908) Nicoll, 1910(Trematoda, Lepocread iidae)

The cercaria of Lepidapedon elongatum develops in rediae in Onoba aculeus (Gould) (Prosobranchia, Rissoidae) in order to develop to infectivity during four weeks in polychaetes, whereas they never or rarely become infective in molluscs and echinoderms.
