Description (after Anderson & Wong 1982). In the apparent absence of a description of L3 from fishes the
following is based on Anderson & Wong’s (1982) account of L3 from experimentally infected amphipods. L3
slender and delicate, 2.60 (2.20–2.80) long, 0.074 (0.070–0.090) wide. Cuticle transversely striated. Head with
prominent triangular pseudolabia. Interlabia each divided into two equal lobes. Two pairs cephalic papillae
submedially at base of pseudolabia. Amphids inconspicuous. Buccal cavity narrow, widening at oral opening and
lined with thick cuticle. Deirids small, near nerve ring. Excretory pore opens 0.162 (0.14–0.19) from anterior end
( Fig. 70 View FIGURE 70 A). Total oesophagus [muscular plus glandular] 1.25 (1.12–1.44) long. Rectum tubular and surrounded by
three oval-shaped rectal cells with prominent nuclei. Tail with slight dorsal curve, and rounded tip. Inconspicuous
phasmids located subventrally ( Fig. 70 View FIGURE 70 B). Male genital primordium lies free in pseudocoelom; female primordium
attached to body wall by vaginal primordium.
