Comments. The morphological characters observed in the specimens agree with the original description given by Durette-Desset et al. (1997), i.e. presence of a corona radiata and esophageal tooth, synlophe with numerous longitudinal ridges transversally elongated, caudal bursa with rays 5 and 6 apposed in males and didelphic in females.

Tapironema coronatum was described parasitizing Holochilus brasiliensis (Desmarest, 1819) ( Rodentia : Sigmodontinae ) in Buenos Aires province, Argentina, and parasitizing Tapirus terrestris (Linneaus, 1758) ( Perissodactyla : Tapiridae ) in French Guiana.

This finding enlarges the host records and adds new localities for Argentina.
