title: [Presence of glochidia of Diplodon chilensis Hass 1931 (Mollusca, Pelecypoda) in Patagonian freshwater fishes].
abstract: The presence of glochidia of Diplodon chilensis Haas 1931 (Mollusca, Pelecypoda) has been reported in gills of wild freshwater fish in the Argentinian Patagonia. Death occurrences due to glochidiasis have not been observed either in wild fish or in cultured fish. The records of Oncorhynchus mykiss, Galaxias platei, Patagonia hatcheri and Percichtys trucha extend the number of known hosts for D. chilensis and add new localities, thus extending the distributions of the mollusc.
