This study provides additional data on morphometric and molecular phylogenetic position inferred from the nuclear ribosomal gene 28S (partial). DNA sequences were isolated from <jats:italic>Haplometroides intercaecalis<\/jats:italic> Silva, Ferreira and Str\u00fcssmann, 2007 found in one specimen of <jats:italic>Phalotris matogrossensis<\/jats:italic> Lema, D\u2019Agostini and Cappellari, 2005. Five digenean specimens were recovered from the esophagus of this snake, and four specimens were used for morphometrical studies and one specimen for molecular analysis. Phylogenetic analysis using maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods was conducted with sequences available for the order Plagiorchiida and its phylogenetic position places <jats:italic>H. intercaecalis<\/jats:italic> among the brachycoeliids <jats:italic>Brachycoelium<\/jats:italic> (Dujardin, 1845) Stiles and Hassall, 1898 and <jats:italic>Parabrachycoelium<\/jats:italic> P\u00e9rez-Ponce de Le\u00f3n, Mendoza-Garfias, Razo-Mendivil and Parra-Olea, 2011, and the mesocoeliid <jats:italic>Mesocoelium<\/jats:italic> Odhner, 1910, not closely related to plagiorchids as expected. Due to morphological differences among these families, it may be necessary to create a new family to accommodate <jats:italic>Haplometroides<\/jats:italic> spp. However, more genera\/taxa as well as other molecular markers should be added in future studies to confirm our results and resolve this matter. This is the first phylogenetic positioning of digeneans of the genus <jats:italic>Haplometroides<\/jats:italic>, contributing to the systematic analysis of the helminthological biodiversity of Neotropical snakes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1515\/ap-2018-0062","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,7,12]],"date-time":"2018-07-12T17:09:22Z","timestamp":1531415362000},"page":"522-526","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Molecular phylogenetic position of Haplometroides intercaecalis (Digenea, Plagiorchiidae)"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"63","author":[{"given":"Maria Isabel","family":"M\u00fcller","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Drausio Honorio","family":"Morais","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Reinaldo Jos\u00e9 da","family":"Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","reference":[{"key":"ref401","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"527","DOI":"10.1590\/S1678-91992008000300011","article-title":"New report on parasitism by Haplometroides buccicola (Digenea, Plagiorchiidae) in brazilian snakes","volume":"14","year":"2008","journal-title":"Journal of Venomous Animals Toxins including Tropical Diseases"},{"key":"ref311","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"111","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01731581","article-title":"A simple method for estimating evolutionary rate of base substitutions through comparative studies of nucleotide sequences","volume":"16","year":"1980","journal-title":"Journal of Molecular Evolution"},{"key":"ref91","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"128","DOI":"10.1645\/GE-2346.1","article-title":"A new genus and species of Brachycoeliidae (Digenea) from Chiropterontriton sp.
