“…E. tricornis occidentalis Richardson, 1905, E. bruscai Delaney, 1984, and E. quadricornis (Hansen, 1890) have been repolted as occasional commensals of sponges (see Delaney 1984), but apparently not to the exclusive degree that we have observed for E. delaneyi. During this study, Excorallana delaneyi was found associated with two sponges, Halichondria sp.…”

“…Since Excorallana berbicensis, E. t. tricornis, and E. tricornis occidentulis are known to parasitize fishes (Delaney 1984), our limited observations do not preclude the possibility that E. delaneyi may intemittantly parasitize fishes during all or part of its life cycle. Monod (1969) reported E. berbicensis as a parasite of the lemon shark Negaprion brevirostris in South American waters.…”

“…Members of the genus Excorallana are known to parasitize fishes, including sharks and rays (Van Name 1925, Monod 1969, Menzies and G l y~ 1968, Delaney 1984, thus indicating the possibility that E. delaneyi may parasitize fish during some stage of its development, retiring to the sponge host to molt and reproduce between feedings. Many of the specimens collected had guts greatly swollen with what appeared to be blood indicating that they may have recently fed on a fish host.…”

“…The New World genus Excorallana Stebbing, 1904, is currently represented by 20 species (Lemos de Castro and Lima, 1976;Delaney, 1984). Three species, Excorallana antillensis (Hansen, 1890), E. tricornis tricornis (Hansen, 1890), and E. mexicana Richardson, 1905, have been reported from the Gulf of Mexico (see Richardson, 1905;Menzies and Krucynski, 1983;Delaney, 1984).…”

Excorallana delaneyi n. sp. was found associated with the sponges Halichondria sp. and Hymeniacidon sp. in St. Joseph Bay, Florida. Excorallana delaneyi is most similar to E . berbicensis Boone, 1918 described from Brazil, but it can be distinguished from that species and other members of the genus by the shape and spination of the uropods and pleotelson. A key is presented to separate E. delaneyi and the other seven species of Excorallana that lack lateral notches in the pleotelson. Morphological differences between the subadults and adults of E. delaneyi are described, and possible taxonomic problems resulting from such differences in other members of the genus are discussed. Based on field observations and known life history pattems for some members of the genus Excorallana, we consider E . delaneyi to be an intermittent fish parasite which lives and reproduces in a sponge domicile between feedings.

Two new species of the marine isopod genus Tridentella Richardson, 1905, are described from California. The monogeneric family Tridentellidae Bruce, 1984, is rediagnosed and a comparison to the original diagnosis is presented. A list of the ten described species of Tridentellidae is given, with synonymies and general distributional information. Notes on the ecology and biogeography of the family are presented, as well as a key to the genera of the closely related families Tridentellidae and Corallanidae.

The isopod crustaceans reported from or expected to occur in littoral and sublittoral marine habitats of the Southern California Bight (SCB) in the northeastern Pacific Ocean are reviewed. A total of 190 species, representing 105 genera in 42 families and six suborders are covered. Approximately 84% of these isopods represent described species with the remaining 16% comprising well-documented “provisional” but undescribed species. Cymothoida and Asellota are the most diverse of the six suborders, accounting for ca. 36% and 29% of the species, respectively. Valvifera and Sphaeromatidea are the next most speciose suborders with between 13–15% of the species each, while the suborder Limnorioidea represents fewer than 2% of the SCB isopod fauna. Finally, the mostly terrestrial suborder Oniscidea accounts for ca. 5% of the species treated herein, each which occurs at or above the high tide mark in intertidal habitats. A key to the suborders and superfamilies is presented followed by nine keys to the SCB species within each of the resultant groups. Figures are provided for most species. Bathymetric range, geographic distribution, type locality, habitat, body size, and a comprehensive list of references are included for most species.
