Global diversity of fish parasitic isopod crustaceans of the family Cymothoidae. [PDF]
Int J Parasitol Parasites Wildl, 2014 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
TAPROBANICA: The Journal of Asian Biodiversity, 2014 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
