متن کاملBrief Note: Comparative Morphology of the First-Stage Larvae of Two Species of Philometra (Nematoda: Philometridae) and One Species of Camallanus (Nematoda: Camallanidae) From Lake Erie Fishes
Previous descriptions of larval philometrids and camallanids are based on observation from light microscopy. First-stage larvae of Camallanus oxycephalus, Philometra cylindracea, and Philometra sp. were examined by electron microscopy to determine whether differences seen in adult structure also occur in the larvae, allowing for identification of larval stages in the intermediate and definitive...
