Huffmanela ossicola is a parasitic nematode.[1] It has been observed in the branchial arch bone and the spinal cord bone (as well as others) of the labrid marine fishes Bodianus loxozonus,[1] Bodianus busellatus[2] and Bodianus perditio[2] caught off New Caledonia. This is the first species of Huffmanela reported from bone tissue.[1] Its eggs are only available for the continuation of the life-cycle after the host's death.
Description
The adults are unknown; only the eggs were described.[1][2] The eggs are large, 72–88 micrometers in length and 32–40 micrometers in width, with a thick shell. Each egg is covered with numerous filaments enclosed in a thin envelope.
