SYNOPSIS. Five species of Leptotheca , one new, were found in the macrourid fishes and the sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria . Those species which were geographically widespread in numerous host species showed little variation. Two Leptotheca species were found both in the gall bladder and urinary bladder/kidney.
