| Abstract | The presence of three monogeneans in marine fishes from Chile, is reported. One of them, Caballerocotyla australis, from the gills of Sarda chiliensis chiliensis (Cuvier 1876), is considered to be a new species. Capsala neothunni Yamaguti 1968, and Capsala gotoi Yamaguti 1968, are considered as member of the genus Caballerocotyla Price 1960. The species redescribed by Baeza & Castro (1975) as Benedenia melleni is Neobenedenia melleni Yamaguti 1963, type species of the venus Neobenedenia Y amaguti 19 6 3. Entobdella squamula (Heath 1902) from the skin of Hippoglossina macrops Steindachner 1876 is reported for the first time in northern Chile. Artificial keys to the known species of the genus Neobenedenia Yamaguti 1963, and Caballerocotyla Price 1960 are also given. |
