Two new species, Dollfusiella armata sp. nov. from Maculabatis toshi (Whitley, 1939) and M. cf. astra Last, ManjajiMatsumoto and Pogonoski, 2008, and Dollfusiella pilosa sp. nov. from Aetobatus ocellatus (Kuhl, 1823) are described. Prochristianella odonoghuei Beveridge, 1990 becomes a junior synonym of Prochristianella butlerae Beveridge, 1990 based on identical strobilar and tentacular morphologies. Prochristianella omunae Beveridge and Justine, 2010 is reported from Australia for the first time, where it was recovered from the type host Neotrygon trigonoides (Castelnau, 1873). Additional new host records are included as well as extensions of known geographical distributions to now include south-eastern Queensland. Metacestodes were recovered from the digestive glands of yabbies, Trypaea australis (Dana, 1852), representing an undescribed species of Dollfusiella. Adults of this species were found in the spiral valves of N. trigonoides and Ae. ocellatus. Six species of metacestodes of trypanorhynch cestodes were recovered from the digestive glands of pistol shrimps, Alpheus spp. (A. richardsoni Yaldwyn, 1971 and A. papillosus Banner & Banner, 1982). Of these, three were identified as Parachristianella monomegacantha Kruse, 1959, Prochristianella aciculata Beveridge and Justine, 2010 and Zygorhynchus robertsoni Beveridge and Campbell, 1988, the adults of all three species being originally reported from batoids. Two undescribed species of Dollfusiella and undescribed species of Parachristianella and Zygorhynchus were also recovered from alpheid shrimps; definitive hosts were identified for each species, but the material available was insufficient to allow formal descriptions.  Cestoda, Trypanorhyncha, elasmobranchs, Callianassidae, Alpheidae, life cycles, new species.

Beveridge (1990) reported a number of species of eutetrarhynchids from batoids in Moreton Bay, while Beveridge and Campbell (1988a) described Shirleyrhynchus butlerae Beveridge and Campbell, 1988 from Hemitrygon fluviorum (Ogilby, 1908) and recorded Callitetrarhynchus gracilis (Rudolphi, 1819) from the same host species (Beveridge & Campbell 1996). Palm and Beveridge (2002) also reported tentaculariid trypanorhynchs from elasmobranchs and teleosts both within Moreton Bay and from the oceanic coast of North Stradbroke Island. However, there has been no systematic collecting of trypanorhynch cestodes in this region to date. The current report is part of an examination of the trypanorhynch fauna of Moreton Bay, Queensland. In an earlier publication, the larval trypanorhynch species in teleost fishes were reported (Beveridge et al. 2017a).

Many of the putative new species (14) have been formally described in two systematic papers which also revised existing species (Holcroft 2018c, d). In this paper we describe an additional thirteen species of MEQ Charopidae recorded by Holcroft (2018b) including some which were concealed among ‘material examined’ lists of more broadly defined species in that study. These new species are allocated to four newly diagnosed and six existing genera. We also present additional distribution data for three previously described species occurring in the region: Setomedea janae Stanisic, 1990, Discocharopa aperta (Möllendorff, 1888) and Sinployea intensa (Iredale, 1941). The latter two are new records for MEQ. A further six species are identified as putatively new from material listed in Holcroft (2018b) but are not formally described at this time because of poor quality material or material damaged during specimen preparation and handling. These damaged shells and fragments are documented and illustrated with brief accompanying remarks, not only to complete the species inventory, but more so to encourage and direct future investigations. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study is based on material revised in Holcroft (2018b). Individual specimens are identified by their registration number and respective institutional prefix (QMMO, Queensland Museum; AMSC, Australian Museum). Species not formally described are denoted by a family descriptor and alphanumeric codon that is used in both the QM’s and AM’s land snail databases to denote undescribed land snail species, e.g. Charopid MQ 43.
