GULYAEVILEPIS KORNIENKO & BINKIENė, 2014

Diagnosis (according to Kornienko & Binkienė, 2014): Small cestode with serial heteronomous maturation. Each series ends with one or two sterile proglottides. Proglottides acraspedote, wider than long, gravid longer than wide. Rostellum rudimentary. Suckers elongate, inside dorsal and ventral bothrium-like depressions of scolex. Osmoregulatory canals without transverse anastomoses. Three testes situated in a triangle, one poral and two antiporal. Cirrus armed. Internal seminal vesicles absent. External seminal vesicles elongate. Cirrus-sac reaches or slightly crosses midline of proglottis. Genital pores dextral. Vagina armed. Seminal receptacle indistinct. Ovary beanshaped, entire or slightly bilobed. Vitellarium entire. Uterus initially horseshoe-shaped, then transforms to become sacciform. European part of the Palaearctic.

Type and only species: Gulyaevilepis tripartita (Zarnowski, 1955) Kornienko & Binkienė, 2014 .

Remarks: Besides male and hermaphroditic proglottides, G. tripartita has one or two sterile proglottides in each series of the strobila ( Fig. 3B). The uterus transforms from horseshoe-shaped to sacciform without coalescence of the walls (Kornienko & Binkienė, 2014).
