Abstract: Helminthological examination of rodents revealed the occurrence of two Psilotrema species, P. simillimum (Mühling, 1898) and P. spiculigerum (Mühling, 1898) in Hungary. The hosts of P. simillimum were Arvicola terrestris and Pitymys subterraneus, while P. spiculigerum parasitized Ondatra zibethica. The results of the author’s investigations corroborate Merkusheva’s statement, namely that P. pharyngeatum Grabda, 1954, is the junior synonym of P. simillimum. On the basis of the author’s examination, P. marki Skwortzow, 1934 is the junior synonym of P. spiculigerum (Mühling. 1898).
