Three lepocreadiid digenean species of two genera, Neolepidapedon Manter, 1954 and Lepidapedon Stafford, 1904, occur in notothenioid fishes of the genera Trematomus (Nototheniidae), Artedidraco and Pogonophryne (both Artedidraconidae), Bathydraco and Prionodraco (both Bathydraconidae) in the Weddell Sea. Descriptions of all species, including a new one and two previously recorded in the high Antarctic, are given. Neolepidapedon trematomi Prudhoe et Bray, 1973 is recorded in 4 host species, three of the genus Trematomus (2 new host species) and Pogonophryne permitini (new host species and family), for the first time in the Weddell Sea and south to 70°S. Lepidapedon garrardi (Leiper et Atkinson, 1914) and L. balgueriasi sp. n. belong to the “Beveridgei subgroup” of Bray and Gibson (1995). L. garrardi has the excretory vesicle reaching to the level of the border between the testes and it is transferred to this subgroup from the “Garrardi subgroup”, which is renamed to the “Zubchenkoi subgroup”. This species is recorded in 9 host species (7 new hosts), for the first time in the Weddell Sea. L. balgueriasi sp. n. is recorded in 4 species of the genus Trematomus, including T. loennbergi (type-host). This species has eggs similar in number and size to L. garrardi (egg length exceeding 0.1 mm), but it has relatively smaller suckers and pharynx, and vitelline follicles confluent in the forebody and dorsally to the testes; its site is in the pyloric caeca and anterior part of the small intestine. A key to species of the “Beveridgei subgroup” of the genus Lepidapedon is given.

In total, 400 bony fishes caught at a depth 120-1540 m in the east part of the Weddell Sea were examined and 63 fishes of 4 families occurring at depths of 120-590 m were infected with Macvicaria spp. Three species (185 specimens) were recognised, including two new species, M. microtestis sp. n. and M. longibursata sp. n., and one species, M. georgiana (Kovalyova et Gaevskaya, 1974), previously recorded only in the Western Antarctic. M. microtestis sp. n. occurs in nototheniids (Trematomus spp.) and artedidraconids. It has testes smaller than the ovary and which are entirely obscured by vitelline follicles dorsally. M. longibursata sp. n. occurs in two zoarcid species. It has the cirrus sac extending far posterior to the ventral sucker. M. georgiana occurs in eight species of the genus Trematomus (Nototheniidae) and in Cryodraco antarcticus (Channichthyidae); six host species are new. A key to seven species of the genus Macvicaria occurring in the Antarctic is presented.
