Camallanus tridentatus (Drasche) (Nematoda: Camallanidae): new taxonomically important morphological data.

Camallanus cotti (Nematoda: Camallanidae), an introduced parasite of fishes in New Caledonia.

A pathogenic Asian nematode species of Camallanus, C. cotti Fujita, 1927, was found in New Caledonia, South Pacific, for the first time; it was recorded from two native fishes, Awaous guamensis (Valenciennes) (Gobiidae) (prevalence 51%, intensity 1-25) and Kuhlia marginata (Cuvier) (Kuhliidae) (a single specimen found), of the La Foa River, about 100 km north of Nouméa; the latter represents a ...

Camallanus emydidius n. sp. (Nematoda: Camallanidae) in Trachemys dorbigni (Duméril & Bibron, 1835) (Testudines: Emydidae) from Southern Brazil

This paper describes a new species of Camallanus found in the freshwater turtle Trachemys dorbigni. Sixty hosts collected in Southern Brazil were examined. All hosts (100%) were parasitized by a new species of Camallanus, which was described as Camallanus emydidius n. sp. The new species differs from other Camallanus species of freshwater turtles mainly because of the morphology of the right sp...

An Analysis of the Changes in the Prevalence of Camallanus Oxycephalus (Nematoda: Camallanidae) in Western Lake Erie

A New Nematode Camallanus Boomkeri Sp. from the Fish, Channa Orientalis (oestiechthyes: Channidaes) in Freshwaters of Panjgur, Balochistan

The present study was conducted to investigate the helminth parasites of fish. During this study a new species of genus Camallanus Railliet and Henry, 1915 (Nematoda: Camallanidae) is described from specimens found in the swim bladder of Channa orientalis Bloch and Schneider, 1801 collected from River Gwarko in Panjgur (Balochistan). This new species Camallanus boomkeri n. sp. differs from othe...

Some nematodes of fishes from central China, with the redescription of Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus)fulvidraconis (Camallanidae).

The present paper comprises a systematic survey of nematodes based on helminthological examinations of 176 specimens of freshwater fishes, belonging to 22 species, from central China (mostly lakes in Hubei Province) collected during the autumn of 2001. The following six species were recorded: Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus)fulvidraconis Li, 1935, Camallanus cotti Fujita, 1927, Dentiphilometra m...
