The surface ultrastructure of larval Anisakis type I, Anisakis type II, Raphidascaris, Contracaecum type A, Thynnascaris type A and Thynnascaris type B was examined by scanning electron microscopy. These species were identified clearly by the presence of a boring tooth, a mucron, and other morphological features. The means of the distances between transverse striations (DBTS) of larval Anisakis type I (5.
