Some new additional morphological and metrical data are provided, particularly on the synlophe of  the following species: Hassalstrongylus dessetae Pinto, 1978, Stilestrongylus eta (Travassos, 1937), S. manni Denké & Murúa, 1977 and Stilestrongylus valdivianus Durette-Desset & Murúa, 1979, based on type and voucher material deposited in Brazilian and French collections.  Heligmonoides crassidorsualis Franco, 1967 is considered as a Nippostrongylinae incertae sedis: its synlophe not being known it is impossible to report the species to a given genus. However it is unlikely that the species belong to the genus Heligmonoides Baylis, 1928, present only in commensal Murinae from the Old World . Heligmonoides mirzai Smales, 2009 is also regarded, temporarily, as a  Nippostrongylinae incertae sedis.
