Reports of the Scientific Results of the Challenger Expedition, Zoology. London : Her Majesty's Stationary Office Vol. 23. [6] [Shamsi (2014) considers Anisakis diomedeae (Johnston & Mawson), described as Ascaris diomedeae, to be "invalid", noting that: "The validity of this species is doubtful mainly because the identification and assignment to a new species were based on examination of immature specimens. In addition, members of the genus Anisakis do not develop into adults in birds. It was also commented later by one of the authors that these specimens might belong to a new genus and they need to be studied further (Mawson, 1983)."].
