Scientific Name Notes Original description not available. Moniezia sichuanensis Xu et al, 2017 is a homonym of M. sichuanensis Wu, 1982. However, Xu et al. (2017) clearly indicate that they are dealing with M. sichuanensis of Wu (1982), and therefore their desription is regarded as a redescription of the latter species.
