Abstract

Larval anisakids found in the yellow corvina (Pseudosciaena manchurica), a marine fish caught in the Yellow Sea, were classified by their morphological types. Total 1,068 anisakid larvae were collected from 30 fish examined, with the average number per fish of 35.6. They were classified into Anisakis type I larvae of Berland (859 in number, 80.4%), Contracaecum type A of Koyama et al. (13, 1.2%), Contracaecum type C'(new type) (55, 5.1%), Contracaecum type D of Koyama et al.(18, 1.7%), Contracaecum type D'(new type) (77, 7.2%), Contracaecum type V of Yamaguti(3, 0.28%), Raphidascaris sp. of Koyama et al. (1, 0.09%) and unidentified (42, 3.9%). Contracaecum type C' and D' were considered new in the literature.
