Extract

The family Fellodistomidae Nicoll 1913 comprises two subfamilies, Fellodistominae Nicoll 1909 and Haplocladinae Odhner 1911, which are composed of a large number of genera of small flukes, all parasitic in fishes. The type genus of the family was described by Stafford in 1904 from the gall bladder of a Canadian wolf-fish, Anarrhichas lupus. Subsequently several new genera have been added from European and American fishes, but until now no representative of the family has been reported from India.
