Notothenia coriiceps

Two specimens of the black rockcod harboured 13 helminth species (from 7 to 12 species per host) (table 2). A single specimen of the monogenean P. nototheniae was found on one host. Cestodes Diphyllobothrium sp. were found in both hosts; bilocular and trilocular metacestodes were found each in one black rockcod. Three trematode species infected one of two hosts examined. Acanthocephalans were represented by adults of A. megarhynchus in one host and larval Corynosoma spp. , 4 species, each infecting both host specimens (table 2). Acanthocephalans composed the largest part of helminths in N. coriiceps ; they comprised 72.0 % of the total number of helminths collected. Nematodes,

cestodes, and trematodes were less abundant and comprised 19.8 %, 6.1 %, and 1.8 % of the total helminth number, correspondingly.
