Abstract
Huffmanela is a genus of parasitic nematodes in the family Trichosomoididae. Huffmanela species infest only one freshwater fish species and a small number of saltwater fishes. They commonly affect many tissues in particular the swim bladder, gut mucosa, skin, and musculature (Carballo and Navone 2007).
