Extract

Of all the commoner families of parasitic Copepoda, the Chondracanthidae has received perhaps the least systematic notice.

In a recent paper (1927) Leigh-Sharpe and I divided the Chondracanthidae into two sub-families, the Lernentominae and the Chondracanthinae, and gave a full description and commentary on the three genera which form the Lernentominae. The present paper is an attempt to summarise our knowledge of the remaining sub-family, and introduces five genera and one species new to science.
