Angiostoma onychodactyla is the second species to be described from salamanders, albeit a Palaearctic salamander. Discussion A key to the known species of Angiostoma was published by Morand and Barker (1995). Of these 8 species, Angiostoma onychodactyla is more similar to A. limacis and A. plethodontis in that lateral alae are absent, and there is a bulb without valves. In A. limacis, the tip of the tail has denticles, while in A. onychodactyla and A. plethodontis, the tail is elongated and without denticles. The major difference between A. onychodactyla and A. plethodontis is in the number and position of the caudal papillae, A. onychodactyla with 8 pairs (all postcloacal) compared with A. plethodontis with 9 pairs (2 precloacal pairs and 7 postcloacal). Other differences include length of spicules (128 in A. onychodactyla compared with 60) and length of gubernaculum (44 compared with 25). Adamson (1986) suggested that salamander hosts acquired infection by ingesting parasitized molluscs, but more work will be required to test this hypothesis. Onychodactylus japonicus also harbored 3 species of trematodes: 2 individuals of Cephalouterina leoi, 12 of Mesocoeliwn brevicaecum, Ozaki, 1948 Uchida and Itagaki, This study Uchida et al., 1986 This study Uchida et al., 1986 This study Uchida et al., 1986 1979 Pearse, 1932 This study Bursey and Goldberg, 1999 Uchida and Itagaki, 1979 Wilkie, 1930 Uchida et al., 1986 Wilkie, 1930 Pearse, 1932 This study and 1 of Pseiidopolystoma dendriticum.', 1 species of nematode, 124 individuals of Parapharyngodon japonicus; and 1 cystacanth of an unidentified species of acanthocephalan. These species have been previously reported from O. japonicus. Cephalouterina leoi was described from 3 specimens found by Uchida et al. (1986) during examination of the small intestines of 900 O. japonicus. This is the second report of C. leoi; the only known host is O. japonicus. Mesocoeliurn brevicaecum, originally described by Goto and Ozaki (1929a) from the intestine of the Japanese common toad, Bufo japonicus Schlegel, 1838, is often found in the small intestine of other Japanese amphibians, namely, the Kajika frog, Buergeria buergeri (Temminck and Schlegel, 1838), the wrinkled frog, Rana rugosa Temminck and Schlegel, 1838, the Mitsjama salamander, Hynobius nebulosus (Schlegel, 1838), the Stejneger's oriental salamander, H. stejnegeri Dunn, 1923, and the Japanese newt, Triturus pyrrhogaster (Boie, 1826) (Goto and Ozaki, 1929a, b). Nasir and Diaz (1971) referred all Japanese species of Mesocoelium to M. brevicaecum. Pearse (1932) was the first to report M. brevicaecum from O. japonicus and this is the second report of M. brevicaecum in this host.
