Proper identification of Anisakis species infecting host fishes is very important to both human health and fish disease diagnosis. The foremost problem in the identification of Anisakis larvae in fishes is that L3 larvae cannot be easily differentiated morphologically, especially between A. simplex (sensu stricto) (s.s.) (Rudolphi, 1809) and A. pegreffii Campana-Rouget et Biocca, 1955. Instead, molecular means such as allozyme, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cox2 region and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analyses had been successfully used. In this study, morphological differences of L3 larvae collected from fishes and in vitro-cultured L4 larvae and adult A. simplex (s.s.) and A. pegreffii were evaluated. Anisakis larvae were collected from 7 different host fishes within Japan. Undamaged A. simplex (s.s.) and A. pegreffii collected from Oncorhynchus keta (Walbaum) and Scomber japonicus Houttuyn, respectively, were used for in vitro-culture in order to obtain L4 and adult stages. Species identification was confirmed by PCR-RFLP analysis of the ITS region (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) of ribosomal DNA and by mtDNA cox2 gene sequencing. Results revealed that L3, L4 and adult stages of A. simplex (s.s.) and A. pegreffii are morphologically distinguishable based on ventriculus length, wherein the former has longer ventriculus (0.90-1.50 mm) than the latter (0.50-0.78 mm). For oesophagus/ventriculus ratio, these two species are distinguishable only during L4 and adult stages. Also, adult male A. simplex (s.s.) and A. pegreffii were found to be distinguishable by differences in the distribution pattern of the caudal papillae, particularly the 3rd pair of distal papillae.
