ABSTRACT
Specimes of elasmobranch fishes, captured in 1998 in the the State of Paraná, Brazil, were parasitized with Trypanorhyncha/Homeacanthoidea cestodes: Carcharhinus signatus with Heteronybelinia yamagutii (Dollfus, 1960) Palm, 1999 and H. nipponica (Yamaguti, 1952) Palm, 1999; Dipturus trachydermus (Krefft & Stehmann, 1975) with Mixonybelinia beveridgei (Palm et al, 1997) Palm, 1999. Details of scolex morphology of the two species of Heteronybelinia that expanded their desciptions were obtained. The known geographical distribution of the species is widened.
