Popis: Bulbodacnitis alpinus sp. nov. is described from Salvelinus alpinus L. from the North Slope of Yukon and Alaska. Bulbodacnitis alpinus was found to be present in both anadromous and freshwater resident stream populations but it is absent from lake populations of S. alpinus. Specimens of B. occidentalis Smedley, 1933, B. scotti Simon, 1935, B. ampullastoma Maggenti, 1971, and B. truttae (Fabricius, 1794) were examined and comparative measurements are presented. Bulbodacnitis scotti, B. ampullastoma, and B. occidentalis are considered synonyms of B. truttae.
