Abstract
Examination of the small intestine of a hog sucker, Hypentelium nigricans (LeSueur)2 collected on April 3, 1941, from the Saline River near Milan, Monroe County, Michigan, revealed three specimens of a new species of trematode belonging to the genus Triganodistomum Simer, 1929. In the fall of 1941, two of nine hog suckers taken from the Saline River near Saline, Washtenaw County, Michigan, contained three and four adult trematodes respectively. The following description is based upon the study of living specimens, and of whole mounts and transverse sections of specimens fixed in hot Bouin's fluid, stained in Mayer's paracarmine (whole mounts) or Ehrlich's acid haematoxylin (sections), and mounted in clarite X (Nevillite no. 1).
