Abstract
The preliminary studies of nematode parasites from Conger conger L. sampled in Northwest coast of Iberian Peninsula revealed the occurrence of Anisaki s sp. larvae (L3), Cucullanus hians, Cucullanus longispiculum and Cristitec tus congeri. Distinctive features of C. hians and C. longispiculum are pres ented. The possibility of misidentification between Cucullanus sp. and Dich elyne sp. is discussed.
