''Raillietina'' is a genus of tapeworms that includes helminth parasites of vertebrates, mostly of birds. The genus was named in 1920 in honour of a French veterinarian and helminthologist, Louis-Joseph Alcide Railliet. Of the 37 species recorded under the genus, ''Raillietina demerariensis'', ''R. asiatica'', and ''R. formsana'' are the only species reported from humans, while the rest is found in birds.
