| Three new siphonostomatoid copepods are associated with Ophiuroidea in the tropical western Atlantic. Collocheres vervoorti spec. nov., from Ophiothrix angulata in Jamaica, has an elongate, gently tapered genital double-somite in the female and the second segment of leg 5 has a distal outer notch. Collocheres lunulifer spec. nov., an associate of Ophiothrix angulata and Ophiothrix suensonii in Barbados, has sclerotized lunules on the basis and first segment of the endopod of leg 1. Ophiurocheres bellulus gen. nov., spec, nov., living on Ophiomyxa flaccida in Puerto Rico, has the third segment of the exopod of leg 1 armed with 11,2,2 and the second segment of leg 5 bears 2 setae in the female and 3 setae in the male. |

| Previous work (in i960) at Nosy Bé, in northwestern Madagascar, resulted in the collection by dredging of the antipatharian Stichopathes echinulata Brook parasitized by the copepod Vahinius petax Humes, 1967. More recently (in 1964 and 1967) I have obtained by SCUBA diving several other antipatharians with which the copepods described below were associated. The collection in 1964 was made as part of the U. S. Program in Biology of the International Indian Ocean Expedition. The collections in 1967 were made during field work supported by a grant (GB-5838) from the National Science Foundation of the United States. The study of the copepods has been aided by the same N. S. F. grant. All figures have been drawn with the aid of a camera lucida. The letter after... |

| A synopsis of the 97 species of lichomolgid copepods known to be associated with tropical IndoPacific shallow-water alcyonaceans is given (Madagascar, New Caledonia, Moluccas, Philippines, and Enewetak Atoll). One new genus and 29 new species are included, distributed among the lichomolgid genera Acanthomolgus (2 new species), Alcyonomolgus (1), Colobomolgus (2), Critomolgus (3), Doridicola (5), Paradoridicola (7), Paramolgus (8), and Telestacicola (1). The alcyonacean hosts, numbering more than 100 species, include members of the genera Alcyonium, Anthelia, Capnella, Cespitularia, Cladiella, Dendronephthya, Heteroxenia, Lemnalia, Litophyton, Lobophytum, Nephthea, Paralemnalia, Parerythropodium, Sarcophyton, Sinularia, Siphonogorgia, Stereonephthya,... |

| In his original description of the worm Lamellibrachia barhami, found in a depth of 1125 m in the northeastern Pacific, Webb (1969: 31) mentioned "as yet unidentified copepods which live in quite large numbers in interlamellar pockets in the tentacular crown". Webb regarded the worm host as a pogonophoran (Order Vestimentifera), but Dr. J. van der Land of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, believes that the genus Lamellibrachia should be referred to the Annelida, Vestimentifera (in a letter to the author, 13 December 1971). Copepods are not known to be associated with Pogonophora, but many live on polychaete annelids. Through the kindness of Dr. W. Vervoort, Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, I have had the opportunity to study a... |
