Maritrema is a genus of trematodes (flukes) in the family Microphallidae, although some have suggested its placement in the separate family Maritrematidae.^[1] It was first described by Nikoll in 1907 from birds in Britain.^[2] Species of the genus usually infect birds, but several have switched hosts and are found in mammals, such as the marsh rice rat.^[3] Several species use the fiddler crab Uca pugilator as an intermediate host.^[4]

Species include:

Maritrema acadiae (Swales, 1933)^[5]
Maritrema arenaria Hadley and Castle, 1940^[6]
Maritrema bonaerensis Etchegoin and Martorelli, 1997^[7]

An undescribed species, "Maritrema sp. I", is known from clapper rails (Rallus crepitans) and marsh rice rats (Oryzomys palustris) in the eastern United States.^[4] M. heardi was placed in a separate genus Floridatrema upon its description in 1994 on the basis of a morphological difference, but was reassigned to Maritrema in 2005, as molecular data indicated that Maritrema would be paraphyletic without the inclusion of the species.^[1]
