Centrorhynchus is a genus of parasitic worms belonging to the family Centrorhynchidae.[1]

The genus has cosmopolitan distribution.[1]

  • Centrorhynchus globirostris Amin, Heckmann, Wilson, Keele, and Khan, 2014[3]
C. globirostris infests the pheasant crow (Centropus sinensis) in Pakistan. A genetic analysis has been completed.[3]
C. nahuelhuapensis was found in the intestine of the rufous-legged owl (Strix rufipes) in Patagonia, Argentina. The proboscis is armed with 31–33 rows of hooks 16 or 17 hooks per row. The hooks in each row are distributed into 5 true hooks, 4 transitional hooks, and 7–8 spiniform hooks. It has three cement glands. The worm has a filiform body. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted using the small and large ribosomal subunits confirming the placement of this species in the genus Centrorhynchus.[4]
