Abstract: | Three new species of Hatschekia are described from the gill filaments of fishes taken in the Persian Gulf: H. seyi n. sp. from Heniochus acuminatus (Linnaeus), H. nodosa n. sp. from Lutjanus coccineus (Cuvier) and H. tanysoma n. sp. from L. fulviflamma (Forsskål). H. seyi differs from its congeners in having the cephalothorax longer than the trunk; H. nodosa, in having multiple nodules on the posterolateral margins of the trunk; and H. tanysoma, in having the trunk more than six times the length of cephalothorax and some pinnate setae on legs 1 and 2. |
