Abstract
Fourteen species of marine molluscs, collected from the west coast of Eyjafjordur, North Iceland, are examined for parasitic Digenea. The distribution and where necessary the morphology of seven parasite species is described, including three new to science, namely, Metacercaria margaritae-groenlandicus I, Cercaria littorinae-saxatilis VI and Metacercaria nucellae-lapillus, The others, involving two new host records, have not previously been recorded from Iceland.Keywords
