Abstract
Dactylogyrus is the largest helminth genus, with more than 900 nominal species, and is consequently in a state of considerable confusion. In an attempt to consolidate our knowledge of this large taxon, this wor k surveys the nominal species and catalogues them and their hosts (to the generic level) in the form of a species list which is cross-refere nced to host-parasite list. A reference list to the authorities for th e taxa is included.
