Remarks: This is the first record of Austrogoniodes macquariensis from Chile, based on two samples held in MONZ. We regard the populations of Austrogoniodes macquariensis from Eudyptes chrysocome and E. chrysolophus as “ sensu lato ” because the males show subtle but consistent differences from those parasitising Eudyptes filholi —the type host—and E. schlegeli .
