Description (after Moravec & Nagasawa 1999b). With characteristics of the genus.
Males (from Oncorhynchus kisutch ): 16.89–20.19 long, 0.371–0.412 maximum width. Vestibule including prostom 0.180–0.208, muscular oesophagus 0.383–0.539, and glandular oesophagus 1.510–1.870 long. Deirids, nerve ring and excretory pore 0.310–0.362, 0.383–0.461 and 0.635–0.679, respectively, from anterior end ( Fig. 64 View FIGURE 64 B). Caudal alae and ventral pre-cloacal ridges well developed. Precloacal papillae: 18 to 26 pairs of subventral papillae arranged in couples. Post-cloacal papillae: six pairs of single papillae. Left spicule slender, 1.140–1.170 long, proximal end broad, distal tip sharply pointed. Right spicule short, boat-shaped, 0.152–0.192 long, proximal end blunt, distal end rounded. Tail 0.310–0.362 long ( Fig. 64 View FIGURE 64 C).
Females (from O. kisutch ): gravid worms 18.150–29.030 long, 0.453–0.597 maximum width. Vestibule including prostom 0.136–0.220, muscular oesophagus 0.365–0.531, and glandular oesophagus 1.470–1.840 long. Deirids, nerve ring and excretory pore 0.246–0.400, 0.296–0.487, and 0.661–0.809, respectively, from anterior end. Tail conical, 0.357–0.409 long, with rounded tip ( Fig. 64 View FIGURE 64 D). Vulva in anterior half of body, 30–40% of body length. Vagina directed posteriorly from vulva. Uterus amphidelphic. Mature eggs oval, thick-walled, larvated, 42– 54 µm x 20–24 µm; one pole with small plug and two thread-like filaments each about 360 µm long ( Fig. 64 View FIGURE 64 E). Site: swim bladder
