| Summary: | * Paracuaria adunca (Creplin, 1846) Anderson & Wong, 1981 Description (after Anderson & Wong 1982). In the apparent absence of a description of L3 from fishes the following is based on Anderson & Wong’s (1982) account of L3 from experimentally infected amphipods. L3 slender and delicate, 2.60 (2.20–2.80) long, 0.074 (0.070–0.090) wide. Cuticle transversely striated. Head with prominent triangular pseudolabia. Interlabia each divided into two equal lobes. Two pairs cephalic papillae submedially at base of pseudolabia. Amphids inconspicuous. Buccal cavity narrow, widening at oral opening and lined with thick cuticle. Deirids small, near nerve ring. Excretory pore opens 0.162 (0.14–0.19) from anterior end (Fig. 70 A). Total oesophagus [muscular plus glandular] 1.25 (1.12–1.44) long. Rectum tubular and surrounded by three oval-shaped rectal cells with prominent nuclei. Tail with slight dorsal curve, and rounded tip. Inconspicuous phasmids located subventrally (Fig. 70 B). Male genital primordium lies free in pseudocoelom; female primordium attached to body wall by vaginal primordium. Site: mesenteries Hosts: Apeltes quadracus (2); Carassius auratus (1); Cottus sp. (1); Fundulus heteroclitus (3); Gasterosteus aculeatus (1, 2); Notropis hudsonius (1); Pungitius pungitius (2, 3); Semotilus atromaculatus (1) Distribution: Nova Scotia, Ontario Records: 1.
