A new species of Sarcotaces (Copepoda: Cyclopoida: Philichthyidae) from Antimora rostrata (Actinopterygii: Gadiformes: Moridae) [PDF]
Parasitic copepods of the genus Sarcotaces occur in galls inside the skeletal musculature of fishes. The gall, hosting a highly metamorphosed drop-shaped female contains also a black fluid capable of staining the fish tissues during filleting.
