Abstract
AbstractFrom December 2006 to March 2008, 60 specimens ofParalichthys isoscelesand 25 specimens ofP. patagonicuswere investigated for helminths. One hundred and sixty-nine digeneans were recovered and parasites were identified as juvenile didymozoids of two types. Torticaecum and Neotorticaecum were found in 48 of the 60P. isosceles(80%) and 10 of the 25P. patagonicus(40%). Torticaecum and Neotorticaecum are reported for the first time in fish in South America (Brazil), found in the Atlantic Ocean. Morphometrics and illustrations are presented.
