Leucoma nyingchiensis

description: Leucoma nyingchiensis Xie, Chen & H. Wang sp. nov.
(Figs 15–16, 28, 36)
Diagnosis. The species is similar to L. ochripes in external characters, but can be easily distinguished from the latter by the following characters: labial palpi white, male genitalia with a longer saccus, left valva longer than right valva, aedeagus with a small sclerotized digitate projection near the base of vesica.
Description. Male adults. Forewing length 37–38mm in holotype, 34–38mm in paratypes.
Head: Antennae bipectinate, brown; frons and vertex covered with white dense hairs; labial palpi white.
Thorax: dorsally and ventrally covered with white scales, tegula white. Forewing white, R 1 and R 2 almost parallel, R 3, R 4 and R 5 stalked, M 1 arising from upper angle of discal cell, M 2 and M 3 arising from the lower angle of discal cell respectively, Cu 1 and Cu 2 approximately parallel, fringe white. Hind wing white; Rs and M 1 short stalked, M 2 and M 3 arising from the lower angle of discal cell respectively, fringe white. Legs densely covered with white hairs, except fore femur mixed with pale yellow scales.
Male genitalia. Uncus broad basally, hook-shaped apically; tegumen broad; valvae slightly asymmetric; the left valva longer than the right one, finger-like terminally; the right valva relatively wide, dorsal edge enfolded; both sides of valvae with a small cluster of setea on cucullus; saccus long, tongue-shaped; aedeagus short, with a small sclerotized digitate projection near the base of vesica; vesica simple, without spines.
Female. Unknown.

Vernacular Names: Beecroft's Scaly-tailed Squirrel.
Synonyms: Anomalurus argenteus Schwann 1904; Anomalurus chapini (J. A. Allen 1922); Anomalurus citrinus Thomas 1916; Anomalurus fulgens Gray 1869; Anomalurus hervoi Dekeyser and Villiers 1951; Anomalurus laniger Temminck 1853; Anomalurus schoutedeni Verheyen 1968.
Distribution: Guinea-Bissau, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Togo, Nigeria, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, N Angola, Dem. Rep. Congo, W Uganda, NW Zambia.
Conservation: CITES – Appendix III (Ghana); IUCN – Lower Risk (lc). Not mentioned in Schlitter (1989).
Discussion: Belongs to the distinct genus Anomalurops according to Ansell (1978:73), Grubb et al. (1998:185), Rosevear (1969:159), and Verheyen (1968:404). Taxa argenteus and hervoi were considered "valid as a race" by Rosevear (1969); chapini and citrinus were considered "well defined subspecies" by Verheyen (1968); schoutedeni was considered a distinct species by Verheyen (1968) and by Cabral (1971). There is no proof of the validity of subspecies (A. C. Schunke, in litt.).

Type Locality: Cameroon, "Efulen, Cameroon district, West Africa".
Vernacular Names: Long-eared Scaly-tailed Flying Squirrel.
Synonyms: Idiurus cansdalei Hayman 1946; Idiurus langi J. A. Allen 1922; Idiurus panga J. A. Allen 1922.
Distribution: Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ghana, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon (see Julliot et al., 1998). N, NE, and E Dem. Rep. Congo, W Tanzania (see Schunke and Hutterer, 2000).
Conservation: CITES – Appendix III (Ghana); IUCN – Lower Risk (nt). Not mentioned in Schlitter (1989).
Discussion: The names langi and panga were considered synonyms of I. m. macrotis by Verheyen (1963:183); cansdalei was regarded as a subspecies by Hayman (1946:211) and by Verheyen (1963:183). In the second edition of this text, Dieterlen (1993) included kivuensis Lönnberg, 1917, by mistake in macrotis instead of including it in zenkeri, as was correctly done by Verheyen (1963:182).

Caligus angustatus

description: Caligus angustatus Krøyer, 1863
This species was originally described based on material from “cod and haddock” collected in Denmark (Krøyer, 1863). The species level catalogue of Caligus produced by Margolis et al. (1975) shows no meaningful mention of this species other than inclusion in lists of species. Northern European caligids are well known and have been intensively sampled. It seems highly unlikely that this species has escaped detection since 1863. It is more likely that its identity has not been recognised because of inadequacies in the original description.
There are only a few candidate species and we consider it likely that C. angustatus may be a synonym of C. gurnardi Krøyer, 1863, described in the same publication. The two species share the same segmentation and setation of leg 4, and this leg is unusually long relative to the length of the female genital complex. There are some differences in the proportions of the genital complex and abdomen but Kabata (1979) showed these features to be variable in C. gurnardi. We tentatively propose to treat C. angustatus Krøyer, 1863 as a junior subjective synonym of C. gurnardi Krøyer, 1863.

Caligus bifurcatus

description: Caligus bifurcatus Pearse, 1952
Caligus bifurcatus is the only species in the genus described as possessing bifurcate tines on the sternal furca. A sternal furca with bifurcate tines can be found in some species of other caligid genera, including Lepeophtheirus, Tuxophorus Wilson, 1908, and Gloiopotes Steenstrup & Lütken, 1861, but not in any other Caligus. In the species level catalogue of Caligus produced by Margolis et al. (1975) there is no subsequent record of C. bifurcatus since its original description (Pearse, 1952). The type host of this species is the Live Sharksucker Echeneis naucrates Linnaeus, 1758, which is one of the two original hosts of another caligid, Tuxophorus caligodes Wilson, 1908 (Wilson, 1908).
Tuxophorus caligodes is characterised by the possession of bifurcate tines on the sternal furca, but it also has distinctive, paired dorso-lateral plates originating on the fourth pedigerous somite. Such lobes were not mentioned by Pearse in his description of C. bifurcatus but the outline of these plates can be discerned in his figure (Pearse, 1952: figure 18). In addition to the precise shape of the sternal furca, other characters are shared between these two taxa, such as the presence of posterolateral lobes on the genital complex of the adult female, the shape of the female abdomen, and the form and armature of leg 4, including the unusually robust protopodal segment. Caligus bifurcatus Pearse, 1952 is here recognised as a junior subjective synonym of Tuxophorus caligodes Wilson, 1908.

Caligus cristatus

description: Caligus cristatus Gould, 1841
Gould (1841: 340–341) wrote: “I have another species of Caligus, quite different from the preceding, taken from a shark (Lamna punctata). It is remarkable for having, within each posterior angle of the shield, two little elevated crests, placed at right angles to each other. The abdominal and caudal plates are very long and broad, and beyond these the jointed appendages project, making the whole animal an inch and a half in length. The margin of the shield, behind the antennae, is very thin and finely fringed, to favour adhesion. This may be Pterygopoda Latreillii. Otherwise it may be called C. cristata.” There was no illustration.
Parker (1968) included C. cristata Gould, 1841 in his “List of Caligus species named prior to 1899 considered nomina nuda or species inquirenda ”. However, the large body size, the broad abdominal plates and caudal rami, and the identity of the host, all suggest that this copepod is a pandarid, probably a member of the genus Dinemoura Latreille, 1829. This species is here treated as a species inquirendum in Dinemoura.

Caligus dactylus

description: Caligus dactylus Ho, Lin & Chang, 2007
Ho et al. (2007) described C. dactylus as a new species based on material of both sexes collected from Dactyloptena peterseni (Nyström, 1887) landed in Taiwan. They made detailed comparisons between their new species and C. priacanthi Pillai, 1961, but did not compare it with C. dactylopteni Uma Devi & Shyamasundari, 1981 described from material taken from another species of flying gurnard, Dactyloptena orientalis (Cuvier, 1829), caught at Waltair on the coast of India (Uma Devi & Shyamasundari, 1981). The descriptions match in every respect and there are no significant differences between these two species. We therefore propose to treat C. dactylus Ho, Lin & Chang, 2007 as a junior subjective synonym of C. dactylopteni Uma Devi & Shyamasundari, 1981.

description: Caligus elevatus Kirtisinghe, in Ingle, Bartlett, Beckett, Rooke & Goldsmith, 1968
In the Zoological Record for Crustacea for 1965 (Ingle et al., 1968) the name “ C. elevatus sp. nov. ” is listed on page 71 as having been created on page 63 of Kirtisinghe’s paper on copepod parasites of fishes of Sri Lanka (Kirtisinghe, 1964). Inspection of Kirtisinghe (1964) revealed that the new species described on page 63 was Caligus clavatus. It seems certain that Caligus elevatus is merely an incorrect subsequent spelling of C. clavatus Kirtisinghe, 1964.

Caligus gayi

description: Caligus gayi Nicolet, 1849
This species, as “ Calygus Gayi ”, was described by Nicolet (1849) from “a fish in Chiloe” (southern Chile). The description, in Spanish, was brief, but a colour illustration of an ovigerous adult female was published subsequently in the accompanying Atlas (Gay, 1854). The body length was given as “2 lineas” – which is equivalent to 4.23 mm. When Wilson (1905) described Caligus teres Wilson, 1905, he commented that it resembles Caligus gayi “in many particulars, but there is still enough difference, particularly in the coloration, to render it certain that the two are distinct species.” Wilson’s females of C. teres were 4.75 mm long.
Colour has rarely been used to distinguish between parasitic copepods, especially when making comparisons with early nineteenth century, hand-painted illustrations. However, because of the lack of detail in the description of C. gayi, it is not possible to unequivocally identify this species and it is treated here as a species inquirendum, following Parker (1968) who included it in his “List of Caligus species named prior to 1899 considered nomina nuda or species inquirenda ”.

Caligus kirtioides

description: Caligus kirtioides Ho & Lin, 2004
Ho & Lin (2001) first described this species as an unnamed Caligus sp. and only later (Ho & Lin, 2004) named it as a new species. The species was based on material from the carangid, Decapterus kurroides Bleeker, 1855, taken off Taiwan, and the authors noted its close similarity to Caligus kirtii Prabha & Pillai, 1986. They distinguished the new species primarily on the basis of minor differences in the relative length of the antennal claw, the size of the postantennal process, and the ornamentation of the outer margin of the endopod of leg 2 (Ho & Lin, 2001).
We made comparisons between C. kirtioides and C. jawahari Hameed & Adamkutty, 1985. The latter species was described from Pristipomoides typus Bleeker, 1852 caught at Cochin (Kerala, India) (Hameed & Adamkutty, 1985). In body shape these two species are very similar to C. berychis Wilson, 1936, originally described from Beryx decadactylus Cuvier, 1829 (Wilson, 1936). All three species share the same unusual and distinctive shape of the female genital complex, with well developed posterolateral lobes and a narrow constriction at the head of the abdomen. All three species also share: a relatively short antennal claw, a sternal furca with widely divergent tines, a leg 4 with two exopodal segments and 4 spines on the distal segment, a similar configuration of distal margin spines 1 to 3 on the exopod of the first leg with a long seta 4 (longer than the segment), and the adult male antenna terminates in a strongly curved but simple claw.
On the basis of published descriptions, C. berychis differs from C. kirtioides and C. jawahari in having a slightly longer claw on the first exopodal segment of leg 3, in having an accessory process on distal spine 1 of leg 1 (a rare state in the genus that needs verification), and in having a slightly better developed posterior process on the female antenna. So we tentatively continue to treat C. berychis as valid, at least until the types have been reexamined, but we consider that there are no significant differences between C. kirtioides and C. jawahari, and propose to treat C. kirtioides Ho & Lin, 2004 as a junior subjective synonym of C. jawahari Hameed & Adamkutty, 1985. This species utilises both lutjanid and carangid hosts.

Caligus murrayanus

description: Caligus murrayanus Scott, T., 1894 and C. bengoensis Scott, T., 1894
In his report on the Entomostraca collected on board the steamer Buccaneer in the Gulf of Guinea, Thomas Scott (1894) reported four species of Caligus. Three of them were new, C. murrayanus, C. bengoensis and C. dubius, and one was an existing species, C. (?) thymni Dana, 1853. Material of three of these species is preserved in the collections of the Natural History Museum, London. Caligus dubius Scott, 1894 was redescribed from the type series by Boxshall & Gurney (1980). The text description and the specimen figured by Scott (1894: pl. XIV, fig. 22) relate to C. dubius. However, there is confusion over the remaining three species because the figure numbers have been confused and do not match the text descriptions.
The specimen identified as Caligus (?) thymni in the text is in a vial in the collections labelled as C. thymni (Reg. No. BMNH 93.4.22.99) but the figure of this specimen (Scott, 1894: pl. XIV, fig. 19) is incorrectly labelled as Caligus murrayanus in the figure captions (p. 159) and in the figure citation given in the text (p. 129). This specimen is readily identifiable as a male of C. coryphaenae.
The male specimen described as Caligus bengoensis in the text is in a vial labelled “ Caligus murrayi type ” (Reg. No. BMNH 93.4.22.98) but the figure of this male (Scott, 1894: pl. XIV, fig. 21) is incorrectly labelled as Caligus thymni both in the figure captions (p. 159) and in the figure citation in the text (p. 130). This specimen is readily identifiable as a male of Caligus affinis Heller, 1866, following the revision of the productus -group by Boxshall & El-Rashidy (2009). Giving priority to the text description indicates that C. bengoensis Scott, 1894 should be treated as a synonym of C. affinis, not C. coryphaenae as noted by numerous authors (see Margolis et al., 1975).
The female specimen described as Caligus murrayanus in the text is not in the collections: its whereabouts are unknown. However, the figure of this female (Scott, 1894: pl. XIV, fig. 20) is incorrectly labelled as Caligus bengoensis both in the figure captions (p. 159) and in the figure citation in the text (p. 130). Giving priority to the text description indicates that C. murrayanus Scott, 1894 is based on the female figured in Scott’s plate XIV, figure 20. In the absence of the type specimen and of any information on host taxon, it is not possible to identify C. murrayanus with certainty. It is treated here as a species inquirendum.

Caligus trichiuri

description: Caligus trichiuri Krøyer, 1863
This species was originally described based on a male from Trichiurus lepturus Linnaeus, 1758 [as Trichiurus haumala] collected in the Indian Ocean (Krøyer, 1863). The illustrations provided by Krøyer (1863) include figures of the male genital complex and abdomen, the antennule and lunule, the mouth tube and maxillules in situ, the maxilliped, the distal exopodal segment of the first swimming leg, and the tip of the fourth leg (1863: plate IV, figs 2a–f).
The precise form of the armature of the distal segment of the exopod of leg 1 is very distinctive and is shared with the species of Metacaligus Thomsen, 1949 (cf. Ho & Bashirullah, 1977). The relative lengths of the male genital somite, free abdominal somites and caudal rami of C. trichiuri correspond exactly with those of Metacaligus uruguayensis Thomsen, 1949. By comparison, the abdominal somites of Metacaligus latus Ho & Lin, 2002 are short, whereas those of M. unguidentatus (Rangnekar & Murti, 1950) are much more elongate. The male of Metacaligus rufus (Wilson, 1908) is unknown but this species has been recorded only from the marine catfish Bagre marinus (Mitchill, 1815) [as Felichthys marinus] on the Atlantic coast of the USA (Wilson, 1908).
We recognise Caligus trichiuri and Metacaligus uruguayensis to be the same species, a parasite primarily of the cutlassfish Trichiurus lepturus, although it has also been reported from Lobotes surinamensis (Bloch, 1790) (Ho & Lin, 2004). Caligus trichiuri is the oldest available name for this taxon, so Caligus (Metacaligus) uruguayensis becomes a junior subjective synonym. The valid name for this taxon is Metacaligus trichiuri (Krøyer, 1863) new combination, although we consider the validity of the genus Metacaligus to be doubtful and in need of reassessment.

description: Siriellinae Norman, 1892
Diagnosis. Proximal part of antennal scale smooth and ending in a toothed notch; endopod of thoracic limbs with brush of stiff serrated setae at base of dactylus; female marsupium made up of 3 pairs of oostegites; uropodal exopod divided by a diaresis into two articles, outer border of the proximal article armed with simple robust setae, (except that of Siriella dubia, which has both robust and plumose setae); uropodal endopod undivided; telson without cleft and usually linguiform.
Remarks. Murano (1986) proposed that the members of the subfamily be grouped into two tribes, the Siriellini, to contain all but one of the known siriellids and the Metasiriellini, to accommodate a new species, Metasiriella kitaroi, described by him from the vicinity of the Philippine Island of Panay. Its unique features and highly unusual combination of characters led him to separate it from the other siriellids.
The Siriellini is made up of two genera, Siriella and Hemisiriella and is characterised by the males having pleopods with coiled or straight pseudobranchiae at the base of the endopods and by the 2nd–5th male pleopods being biramous and natatory, with some species having enlarged, modified setae on the 3rd and 4th male pleopods, or on the 4th only. Both genera are represented in the Lizard Island material. In Siriella, the endopods of the thoracic limbs are all of approximately the same length, while in Hemisiriella, the 3rd thoracic endopods are stout and elongated to about twice the length of the adjacent endopods. Metasiriella kitaroi contrasts with both of these genera in the structure of the male pleopods, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th resembling those of female siriellids, in that they are small, uniramous, consist of one article only and lack pseudobranchiae. The 4th pleopods differ in being biramous and multiarticulate, with endopods that bear a unique rectangular pseudobranchial lobe at the base and that terminate in a pair of enlarged and modified setae.
