Some Parasitic Nematodes from Canadian Fishes

Abstract

The present work forms a continuation of a survey undertaken three years ago, with a view to elucidating the nemic parasites commonly found in fishes of Canadian waters. These species have proved to be largely undescribed, and old species have always offered some new points of interest. The greatest difficulty has been encountered with the literature, much of which was difficult of access. Only those papers which have a definite bearing on the forms studied, and convey some pertinent information, are included in the appended bibliography.
