LITERATURE RECORDS OF 

 NEEDLEFISH COPEPODS 



As stated previously, we did not incorporate 

 literature records into the data included in this 

 palmer. Because of the comprehensive nature of our 

 collections we felt that they would add nothing of 

 significance and might even add data based on mis- 

 identified parasites or hosts. To complete this re- 

 port on needlefish copepods, however, we felt it 

 desirable to cite those repoiis here (a few have 

 already been cited elsewhere in this paper). We 

 consider most, of the recent records to be accurate. 

 The records are listed by recorded host. Wlierever 

 possible we have included the corrected host or 

 parasite name in parentheses.
