[Capillaria merluccii spec. nov. from the sea hake Merluccius capensis and M. paradoxus from the coastal waters of Namibia].
The new nematode species was located in the rectum. It is described and especially compared with Capillaria gracilis (BELLINGHAM, 1844). Its position in the subgenera of the genus Capillaria ZEDER, 1800, proposed by MORAVEC (1987), is discussed.
