Some comments on the genus Lernaeopodina Wilson, 1915 (Copepoda: Siphonostomatoida: Lernaeopodidae).
The status of Lernaeopodina Wilson, 1915 is discussed. It is considered that L. spinacis (Brian, 1908) is a species inquirenda and that the transfer of L. pectinata Ho, 1985 to Kabatahoia Kazachenko, 2001 was justified. The genus is currently restricted to four species.
