}Prodistomum lichtenfelsi n. sp. (Digenea: Lepocreadiidae) is described; it was obtained from the intestine of the longtail bass, Hemanthias leptus (Ginsburg), collected from the Bay of Campeche in the Gulf of Mexico. This is the first record of a parasite from this host. Prodistomum lichtenfelsi n. sp. is similar to P. hynnodi, P. menidiae, and P. waltairensis in that it possesses a prepharynx that is distinctly shorter (153 μm [110–210] long) than the combined length of the esophagus (163 μm…

Attention is drawn to the host-parasite relationship associating a lepocreadiine lepokreadiid with a perciform host, which may indicate that host and parasite have colonised the deep sea simultaneously and co-evolved in that environment.
