Adult trematodes of the genus Stegodexamene Macfarlane, 1951 were recorded from the intestines of two species of freshwater eels, the Pacific short-finned eel Anguilla obscura Günther and the speckled longfin eel Anguilla reinhardtii Steindachner from the Pouembout and La Foa Rivers, New Caledonia, South Pacific. They were identified as Stegodexamene anguillae Macfarlane, 1951, a species previously reported only from eels in New Zealand. The morphology of adult S. anguillae seems to be practically identical with that of the later described Stegodexamene callista Watson 1984 from eels in Australia. The finding of S. anguillae in A. obscura and A. reinhardtii in New Caledonia represents new geographical and host records. In addition to this trematode, two larval specimens of a cestode of the order Proteocephalidea were found in the intestine of one A. obscura from the Pouembout River. No monogenean was found in eels of New Caledonia.
1951年,麦克法兰(Macfarlane)描述的斯氏吸虫属(Stegodexamene)的成年吸虫,是在两种淡水鳗鱼的肠道中发现的,这两种鳗鱼分别是来自南太平洋新喀里多尼亚普翁布特河(Pouembout River)和拉福阿河(La Foa River)的太平洋短鳍鳗(Anguilla obscura Günther)和斑点长鳍鳗(Anguilla reinhardtii Steindachner)。它们被鉴定为1951年的鳗斯氏吸虫(Stegodexamene anguillae Macfarlane),该物种此前仅在新西兰的鳗鱼中被报道过。成年鳗斯氏吸虫的形态似乎与后来描述的、来自澳大利亚鳗鱼的1984年的卡利斯斯氏吸虫(Stegodexamene callista Watson)几乎相同。在新喀里多尼亚的暗纹鳗鲡(A. obscura)和雷氏鳗鲡(A. reinhardtii)中发现鳗斯氏吸虫代表了新的地理和宿主记录。除了这种吸虫外,在一条来自普翁布特河的暗纹鳗鲡的肠道中还发现了两个头槽绦虫目(Proteocephalidea)绦虫的幼虫标本。在新喀里多尼亚的鳗鱼中未发现单殖吸虫。
