Ibacus cottreaui Roger, 1946, Reassigned to the Isopod Genus Cirolana (Cymothoida: Cirolanidae) [PDF]
Abstract Re-examination of the holotype of Ibacus cottreaui Roger, 1946, originally considered to be a scyllarid decapod, confirms that it is an isopod referable to the genus Cirolana Leach, 1818.

Global diversity of fish parasitic isopod crustaceans of the family Cymothoidae. [PDF]
Of the 95 known families of Isopoda only a few are parasitic namely, Bopyridae, Cryptoniscidae, Cymothoidae, Dajidae, Entoniscidae, Gnathiidae and Tridentellidae. Representatives from the family Cymothoidae are obligate parasites of both marine and freshwater fishes and there are currently 40 recognised cymothoid genera worldwide.

Tachaea spongillicola (Cymothoida: Corallanidae) from West Bengal, India
The isopod Tachaea spongillicola (Corallanidae) was described by Stebbing (1907) from the freshwater sponge Eunapius carteri (formerly Spongilla carteri) at the Indian Museum Tank, Kolkata, India. Since then, this species did not appear in literature for nearly hundred years. In 2003, Mariappan et al. reported this isopod from three locations along the

Shape of attachment structures in parasitic isopodan crustaceans: the influence of attachment site and ontogeny [PDF]
Many fields of modern systematic biology are adult-centred. This is unfortunately also the case for Cymothoidae, an ingroup of parasitic forms of Isopoda, with fishes as hosts.

Isopods Cymothoidae ectoparasites of fish from the Amazon [PDF]
Abstract Most freshwater species of Cymothoidae are distributed in South America. They have mainly been recorded in the eastern and western regions of the Amazon River basin. However, in this ecosystem, the biodiversity of this group may be greater if the entire Amazon basin is considered.
