Abstract
A new nematode species, Rhabdochona kisutchi sp. nov., is described from the intestine and pyloric caeca of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) smolts from streams of British Columbia, Canada. It differs from all hitherto known members of the genus, except R. sulaki Saidov, 1953, in having eggs provided with polar caps. It can be distinguished from R. sulaki by the shape, origin, and infrequent occurrence of polar filaments; the position of the vulva; and the length of the esophagus and female tail.
