Abstract

A survey of the trematode parasites of marine fishes of Tomales and Bodega Bays, California, was instituted In the Spring of 1948. Many adult forms were obtained, but the search progressively narrowed Itself to a study of the larval trematodss of an area of Tomales Bay, known, as Nick's Cove. Here an interesting cystophorous cercaria was discovered in the littoral snail, Thais emarglnata.
