title: [The first information on the biology of Philomena sibirica (Nematoda: Philometridae)--a cavitary parasite of whitefish].
abstract: Philomena sibirica was found in the body cavity of whitefishes in one of lakes in the North-West of Chukotka. Its development was studied in intermedial hosts. Cyclops gr. scutifer and Heterocope borealis were basic intermedial hosts of the nematode. The latter molted twice in the haemocoel of copepods. Three larval stages are described.
