Abstract

220 OCCURRENCE OF CALIGUS CORYPHAENAE ON THUNNUS THYNNUS BY HOGANS (1985): CORRECTIONS (COPEPODA, CALIGIDAE) BY BRUCE B. COLLETTE National Marine Fisheries Service Systematics Laboratory and ROGER F.

The recent report by Hogans (1985) of Caligus coryphaenae Steenstrup & Lutken, 1861, from bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus (L., 1758), from Prince Edward Island is marred by an error of omission and an error of interpreta- tion.
