Kroyeria Sphyrnae Rangnekar, 1957 (Copepoda, Siphonostomatoida, Kroyeriidae): First Description of the Male, Supplementary Remarks on the Female, a New Geographic Record for the Species, and a Key to Kroyeria Males

“…Furthermore, Deets (1994) considered a tentative report by Kabata (1970) of a single female K. sphyrnae from the brownbanded bamboo shark (Chiloscylliu m punctatum Müller & Henle, 1838) captured in the Paci c Ocean off Queensland, Australia as being an uncertain report for the species. Kabata (1970) did not illustrate the specimen and at the time of his report K. sphyrnae was such an ill-de ned species that Kabata seemed to indicate reservations regarding the species assignment of his specimen. Additional uncontested reports of K. sphyrnae come from Pillai (1967) from Sphyrna zygaena captured in the northern Indian Ocean off India, and from Deets (1994) from S. zygaena captured in the eastern Paci c Ocean off southern California and in the Gulf of California, and from S. lewini captured in the Gulf of California.…”

“…Before mounting, drying was achieved by placing specimens under a slight vacuum to remove the hexamethyldisilazane . Anatomical terminology used in this report conforms mostly to that of Kabata (1979), and prevalence and mean intensity values were calculated according to Margolis et al (1982). Rangnekar, 1957 ( gs.…”

Some copepods parasitic on elasmobranch fishes from the Peruvian coast, with the description of two new species ofEudactylinavan Beneden, 1853 (Eudactylinidae) and four new records

“…The species described above was compared with other Eudactylina with three-segmented modified second exopod; according to Laubier (1968) there are six such species: E. aspera (Heller, 1.865), E. minuta (Scott and Scott, 1913), E. corruoata Bere, 1930, E. spinula Pearse, 1950and E. valei Nunes-Ruivo, 1954. Kabata (1970 described an additional species, E. papillosa.…”

Lernanthropids and Lernaeopodids (Copepoda) Parasitic on Australian Bream (Acanthopagrus spp.)

“…33-35 Table 7 for prevalence and relative densities; Yamaguti (1936) redescribed Japanese material from Pagrosornus unicolor from the Inland Sea of.Japan. Shiino (1955Shiino ( , 1959) recorded specimens from A. macrocephalus and P. major at Monotori, Mie Prefecture, Japan, and Kabata (1979a) recorded L. atrox from A. australis at Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia. Tripathi (1959Tripathi ( (1962) recovered this parasite from Indian fish, Song & Chen (1976) and Song & Kuang (1980) collected it from A. macrocephalus in China, and Roubal (1981) from A. australis at Coffs Harbour, N.S.W.…”
