One strobila and several segments of a <i>Spirometra<\/i> species were obtained from the intestine of an African male leopard (<i>Panthera<\/i> <i>pardus<\/i>) and spotted hyena (<i>Crocuta<\/i> <i>Crocuta<\/i>) in the Maswa Game Reserve of Tanzania. The morphological characteristics of <i>S<\/i>. <i>theileri<\/i> observed comprised 3 uterine loops on one side and 4 on the other side of the mid-line, a uterine pore situated posterior to the vagina and alternating irregularly either to the right or left of the latter, and vesicular seminis that were much smaller than other <i>Spirometra<\/i> species. Sequence differences in the <i>cox1<\/i> and <i>nad1<\/i> genes between <i>S<\/i>. <i>theileri<\/i> (Tanzania origin) and S. erinaceieuropaei were 10.1% (<i>cox1<\/i>) and 12.0% (<i>nad1<\/i>), while those of <i>S<\/i>. <i>decipiens<\/i> and <i>S<\/i>. <i>ranarum<\/i> were 9.6%, 9.8% (<i>cox1<\/i>) and 13.0%, 12.6% (<i>nad1<\/i>), respectively. The morphological features of the Tanzania-origin <i>Spirometra<\/i> specimens coincided with those of <i>S<\/i>. <i>theileri<\/i>, and the molecular data was also consistent with that of <i>S<\/i>. <i>theileri<\/i>, thereby demonstrating the distribution of <i>S<\/i>. <i>theileri<\/i> in Tanzania.
