ABSTRACT
Hedruris moniezi Ibáñez & Córdova, 1976 (Nematoda: Hedruridae) was described using light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) based on specimens collected from the stomach of Telmatobius culeus (Anura: Telmatobiidae) in Peru. We observed some characteristics not reported previously, including sessile and pedunculated papillae and amphid on the pseudolabia, bifid deirids, morphology of the retractable chitinous hook, morphology and arrangement of the plates on ventral surface of the posterior end of the males, and arrangement of caudal papillae. Telmatobius culeus represents a new host of H. moniezi. In addition, H. basilichtensis Mateo, 1971 is considered to be a junior synonym of H. oriestae Moniez, 1889. A key to valid species of Hedruris in Peru is provided.
