new hosts
Two species of cymothoid isopods (Nerocila japonica Schioedte & Meinert, 1881 and Nerocila phaiopleura Bleeker, 1857) were collected from marine fishes in the Hibiki-Nada Sea, off the west coast of Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan: N. japonica from the dorsal fin of Takifugu snyderi (Abe, 1988) (Tetraodontiformes: Tetraodontidae) and N. phaiopleura from the caudal surface of Scombrops gilberti (Jordan & Snyder, 1901) (Periciformes: Scombropidae). These fishes are new hosts for the Nerocila species. This represents the first record of both Nerocila species from the Hibiki-Nada Sea.
