摘要:
A new form of parasitic copepod,Mecaderochondria pilgrimigen. et spec, nov., recovered from the oral cavity of an uranoscopid fish,Kathetostoma giganteum, at Kaikoura, New Zealand, is described. The female of the new genus is characterised by a long neck consisting of the first and second pedigers, and two pairs of modified but uninflated legs with much reduced proto‐pods. The pygmy male has an atrophied antennal tip on the second antenna.
