Abstract
A muskrat, Ondatra zibethica, from northcentral Ontario harbored Dracunculus insignis (Leidy, 1858) Chandler, 1942 subcutaneously. This is the fifth report of Dracunculus sp. in muskrat and the first record of D. insignis males in this host; they are described briefly. The occurrence of Eustrongylides sp. larvae intramuscularly in this muskrat is the first reported natural infection of a mammal by nematodes of this genus.
