Abstract
The paper describes two species of Haemobaphes (Copepoda: Lernaeoceridae) found on fishes in the waters of British Columbia. The species are: H. diceraus Wilson, 1917 and H. intermedius sp.nov., whose adult, modified females have been found in Georgia Strait. In addition, lernaeocerid larvae of the genus Haemobaphes have been found and several developmental stages are described. The paper also discusses the present status of the genus Haemobaphes and speculates on the possible life cycles of the two species described.
