SUMMARYTwo new species of Lepeophtheirus are described and illustrated based on a collection from the Orange County sewer outfall, California. They are: L. remiopsis sp.nov. from the branchial cavities and external body surfaces of Parophrys vetulus Girard, Hippoglossina stomata Eigenmann & Eigenmann, Pleuronichthys verticalis (Jordan & Gilbert), Chitonotus pugetensis (Steindachner), and Porichthys notatus (Girard); and L. rotundipes sp.nov. from the external body surfaces and occasionally the gill cavities of Scorpaena guttata (Girard) and Citharichthys stigmaeus Jordan & Gilbert.

A New Species

Two small keyhole limpets (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Fissurellidae) were collected live by the senior author and his father (Charles Powell) in the winters of 1967 and 1968 from the side/bottom of moderately flat rocks in the low intertidal zone at Doheny Beach State Park, Dana Point, Orange County, southern California. The larger specimen was collected in the winter of 1968 and the small specimen was collected in winter of 1967. These specimens resemble the genus Lucapinella yet do not quite match any of the known species. The shells are also somewhat similar to Dendrofissurella scutellum from South Africa and two species of Amblychilepas from Australia, however neither of the Dohney Beach specimens can be attributed to those species. This possible new species is assigned to the genus Lucapinella and remains unnamed until additional specimens can be located to determine if they are a new species, a rare exotic species, or a very unusual, miniature L. callomarginata.

AbstractAcarospora brodoanaK. Knudsen, Kocourk. & M. Westb. is described from the San Bernardino Mountains in southern California. A black hypothecium distinguishes it from other species with a carbonized epihymenium.Sarcogyne albothallinaK. Knudsen, Wheeler & M. Westb. is described from the Missouri Breaks in Montana. A white non-farinose thallus and production of 4-O-methylhiascic acid distinguishes it from other species with a carbonized epihymenium. Both species would previously have been placed inPolysporina.The current reported diversity ofAcarosporaceaein North America north of Mexico is 93 species.

Raja Rhina

Two new species of the genus Capillaria (Nematoda: Capillariidae) are described from the intestine of marine fishes from the Pacific coast of Canada. Capillaria freemani sp.nov. from the skates Raja rhina (type host), R. kincaidi, and R. stellulata (family Rajidae) is characterized by the presence of a pseudobursa provided with a tail projection and lateral rays in the male, spiny spicular sheath, long spicule (0.65–0.98 mm), and large body size (up to 25.76 mm long in the male and 38.13 mm in the female). Capillaria parophrysi sp.nov. from the flatfish Parophrys vetulus (family Pleuronectidae) is characterized mainly by the small body size (male up to 5.74 mm in length and female up to 10.42 mm), smooth spicular sheath without spines, the length of spicule (0.28–0.37 mm), and by the presence of two lateral rays and absence of a tail projection in the pseudobursa of the male.
