Abstract

The parasite reported in the above article was misidentified, which was pointed out by Dr. K. MUROGA and Mr. Do of Hiroshima University and Dr. J. S. Ho of California State University. Reexamination by Dr. Kunihiko IZAWA of Mie University upon my request has revealed that it is a copepodid larva belonging to the Caligoida.
