| Abstract |
This work describes Cymothoidae species in Turkey. Some species were collected by the authors, i.e., Anilocra frontalis (Milne Edwards, 1840); Nerocila orbignyi (Guérin-Méneville, 1829-1832); Ceratothoa italica (Schioedte and Meinert, 1883); Ceratothoa oestroides (Risso, 1826); Ceratothoa parallela (Otto, 1828); Emetha audouini> (Milne Edwards, 1840); Livoneca punctata (Uljanin, 1872); Mothocya epimerica (Costa, 1851), and Mothocya belonae (Bruce, 1986). Four of these are reported amongst the Turkish fauna for the first time, i.e., A. frontalis, C. italica, L. punctata, and M. belonae. A list of Cymothoidae already reported from marine fishes of Turkey plus our new reports includes thirteen species (two yet undetermined) from six genera Anilocra, Nerocila, Ceratothoa, Emetha, Livoneca, and Mothocya, and 27 host species. The distributions, hosts, and reporting authors are given. |
