Developmental stages and growth of Pseudocaligus fugu Yamaguti, 1936 (Copepoda: Siphonostomatoida: Caligidae) host-specific to Puffer

The post-embryonic development of the copepod Pseudocaligus fugu is described, which lacks any preadult stage, as in Caligus, but contrasts with Lepeophtheirus species in which two preadult stages are reported.

The lunule of caligid copepods: an evolutionarily novel structure

This case study compared the morphology and development of the anterior margin of the frontal plates between two caligids, Pseudocaligus fugu and Lepeophtheirus sekii, and a more basal caligiform, Dissonus heronensis, to suggest that the lunules originated as a modification of the marginal membranes of the ancestral frontal plates.
