O. phrynocephali belongs to a group of Oochoristica species possessing circular suckers and fewer than 25 testes in a single cluster. It can be distinguished from O. sobolevi, O. elongata, O. parvogenitalis, O. feliui, O. jonnesi, O. macallisteri, O. lygosomatis, O. junkea and O. novaezealandae by smaller scolices and lesser diameter of suckers. |
