Anisakis simplex.

Acknowledgements

Hjalti í Jákupsstovu, director of Fisheries Laboratory

(Fiskirannsóknarstovan), originally encouraged the par-

asitological study of saithe, and is thanked for different

kind of help. I thank Ólavur Sjúrðarberg, schoolmaster

of Leirvík, who generously caught the saithe and Eilif

Gaard, Fiskirannsóknarstovan, who kindly read and

commented on the manuscript. My sincere thanks to

Unnur Patursson at Fiskirannsóknarstovan, who took

care of the age determination from the otholits. Eystur-

oyar Studentaskúli is thanked for laboratory facilities.

Last but not least many thanks go to P.H. Enckell for re-

vision of the manuscript.
