Larval helminths collected include digenean
metacercariae (clinostomes and strigeids), larval cestodes (gryporhynchids), and juvenile nematodes (Contracaecum). Adult
worms include the monogeneans Macrogyrodactylus clarii, Macrogyrodactylus karibae, and Macrogyrodactylus
congolensis; the digenean Clinostomum complanatum; the nematodes Paracamallanus cyathopharynx, Contracaecum
rudolphi, Contracaecum multipapillatum, and Contracaecum rodhaini; and the cestodes Polyonchobothrium clarias and
Echinorhynchotaenia tritesticulata. Many of these observations are the first record of that particular parasite species in
Zimbabwe or southern Africa. Morphological measurements were made and compared with the original species description,
and some unique morphological features are here described.
