Acespadia pomposa n.g. et sp. A Parasitic Copepod of Rhyncodon typicus

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  06 April 2009

Extract

Habitat and material. By the courtesy and at the request of Prof. Vladimir Ebathof of Archangel I have been enabled to examine and describe two female copepods belonging to a new genus and species of the family Lernaeopodidae, consigned to him as taken from the gills of Rhyncodon typicus Smith caught in 1913 in the Pacific between China and south-west Japan. One specimen, drawn to scale (Fig. 1), was twice the size of the other.
