title: Conger myriaster, a new second intermediate host of Heterophyopsis continua (Digenea:Heterophyidae).
abstract: Six metacercariae were found from the gill filaments of Conger myriaster purchased at Mokpo-shi in Korea on 7 September, 1996. Based on the morphology of the excysted specimen, we identified them as metacercariae of Heterophyopsis continua. C. myriaster is a new intermediate host of H. continua in the literature.
