Corvonirmus latifasciatus

Description

Corvonirmus latifasciatus (Piaget, 1880)

Nirmus latifasciatus Piaget, 1880: 143, pl. 11, fig. 11.

Baja California: Haematopus palliatus frazari, San Martin Island, 1897, R.C. McGregor (Kellogg & Mann 1912). Note: One specimen of C. latifasciatus was identified by Kellogg & Mann (1912) as “ Nirmus latifasciatus Piaget ”. The host record is most likely the result of a contamination because no species of Corvonirmus is a regular and natural parasite of any oystercatcher species (see Price et al. 2003).
