Abstract
Thelohanellus notatus (Mavor) is reported from young of the year Notropis hudsonius (Clinton) (Cyprinidae) in Lake Mindemoya, Manitoulin Island, Lake Huron, Ontario. The parasite produced large cysts (1–5 mm in diameter) in body musculature and mesenteries, with aggregations occurring at the base of fins. Forty-six of 47 fish were infected. Intensity was unusually high at 2–30 cysts per fish. The study is the first report of the parasite from Manitoulin Island and from N. hudsonius.
