Tetrabothriidea Baer, 1954
Original language description
The Tetrabothriidea are among the most overlooked groups of tapeworms. The type species of Tetrabothrius Rudolphi, 1819 was described at the end of 18th century as Taenia immerina Abildgaard, 1790 by Abildgaard (1790, pg. 62) from the aquatic bird “Colymby Immeris” (= Gavia immer [Brunnich]). This species was later redescribed by Rudolphi (1808, 1810) as Bothriocephalus macrocephalus Rudolphi, 1808. The genus Bothriocephalus Rudolphi, 1808 was subsequently divided by Rudolphi (1819) into four subgenera, including one named “Tetrabothrii” (with 4 species, including B. macrocephalus) (pg. 140). Diesing (1850) elevated each of Rudolphi’s subgenera to the generic level, thereby establishing the genus Tetrabothrius Rudolphi, 1819. The first tetrabothriid species described from a cetacean was Tetrabothrius triangularis Diesing, 1850 (now valid as Strobilocephalus triangularis [Diesing, 1850] Baer, 1932) from the rough-toothed dolphin, Steno bredanensis (Cuvier) (as Delphinus rostratus Cuvier, Diesing, 1850, pg. 601). Although traditionally attributed to Linton (1891) as an etymological correction of the earlier name Tetrabothrida [sic] of Rudolphi and Diesing (see Wardle and McLeod [1952] for a historical summary), the family name Tetrabothriidae had been used earlier by Linton (1889) to include a number of elasmobranch-hosted cestode groups in addition to Tetrabothrius. Braun (1894–1900) recognized the Tetrabothriinae as a subfamily within the Taeniidae with Tetrabothrius as its only genus. Fuhrmann (1907) subsequently elevated the group to family rank. Wardle and McLeod (1952, pg. 333) incorrectly credited “Linton 1891, emended Fuhrmann, 1907” as the authorities of the family, and considered it to comprise nine genera.
