“…Anisotremus davidsonii (Steindachner), California sargo: Brachadena pyriformis Linton, 1910 Proctotrema longicaecum Manter, 1940 …”

“…The trematode fauna of southern California has been but little known. Sleggs (1927) The occurrence in Belonidae of species of trematodes apparently most similar to a species occurring in sinistral flat fishes (Bothidae) suggests the host distribution of the species of Steganoderma (Manter, 1947, p. 312 Ozaki, 1925;gonistii Yamaguti, 1938;inimici Yamaguti, 1934;lobatus Ozaki, 1925; mexicanus Manter, 1940; minor Yamaguti, l^M', mutu Yamaguti, 1940;ozakii (Layman, 1930) Yamaguti, 1938;quadratus Ozaki, 1928;sebastodis Yamaguti, 1934; sphaericus Ozaki, 1925 (type species) ; xenistii Manter, 1940. Of these species, three (sphaericus, (Manter, 1934) Von Wicklen, 1946;japonicus (Yamaguti, 1938) Von Wicklen, 1946;elongatus (Yamaguti, 1938) Von Wicklen, 1946 ; Genus HELICOMETRINA Linton, 1910 HELICOMETRINA EXONGATA Noble and Park. 1937 Plate 13, Figure 10 Hosts.…”

S. cesticillum has eggs 80a by 50 to 55/x, an oral sucker only slightly smaller than the acetabulum, and a cirrus sac extending more than halfway to the ovary, a conspicuous metraterm, and its oral spines are at least usually interrupted ventrally by a spine lacking or by small spines.…”
