Corynosoma strumosum (Rudolphi, 1802) 

 Liihe, 1904 

 Syn.: Corynosoma osmeri Fujita, 1921.

 seal; Delphinapterus leucas - white whale; 

 Enhydra lutris - sea otter; Eumetopias ju- 

 batus - Steller sea lion; Phoca vitulina 

 richardi - harbour seal; Phoca sp.; Zalophus 

 californiamis - California sea lion; unidenti- 

 fied seals. 



Location: Intestine. 



Localities: Alaska; British Columbia ; Wash- 

 ington; California. 



Recorded by: Ball (1930); Lincicome (1943); 

 Scheffer and Slipp (1944); Van Cleave 

 (1953a, b); Rausch (1953); Margolis 

 (1956); Neiland (1961, 1962); Keyes 

 (1965); Kenyon (1969); Dailey and Hill 

 (1970). 



Remarks: Van Cleave (1953a, b) considered 

 Corynosoma osmeri Fujita, 1921, recorded 

 by Lincicome (1943) from the California sea 

 lion, as a synonym of C. strumosum. Hal- 

 ichoerus grypus was erroneously included by 

 Van Cleave (1953b) as a host of C. strtimo- 

 sum in Alaska; according to Kruidenier 

 (1954) this host was almost certainly Phoca 

 vitulina richardi.
