Twenty-seven females and five males of the new species were collected from the oral cavity of the snappers <i>Lutjanus peru</i> and <i>L. aratus</i> caught for sale in Mazatlán fish markets. The new species is morphologically similar to <i>C. exigua,</i> the previously known species reported from the Eastern Pacific, in general shape of body, cephalon, the anterior pereonites, pereopods and pleotelson; however, they can be easily differentiated because adult females of the new species are larger and slender than those of <i>C. exigua</i> and because they show differences in the dorsal surface of pereonites, the shape of the seventh pereonite and cephalon and the relative size of exopodite and endopodite of the uropods. The new species is morphologically similar to <i>C. exigua</i>, the only species of <i>Cymothoa</i> described so far from the Eastern Pacific, particularly in the general shape of the body, cephalon, anterior pereonites, pereopods, and pleotelson. Nonetheless, it can be readily distinguished from <i>C. exigua</i> by several diagnostic features: adult females attain larger body sizes and exhibit a slenderer morphology especially in the ovigerous females; additionally, differences are present in the dorsal sculpturing of the pereonites, the shape of the sixth and seventh pereonites, and the relative proportions of the exopodite and endopodite of the uropods. <i>Cymothoa facimar</i> <strong>sp. nov.</strong> resembles <i>C. excisa</i>, a species reported from the western Atlantic. Still, the two species can be differentiated by the relative length of the fourth pereonite, which is more prominent in the Atlantic species. The new species is described herein, and a discussion on the status of <i>C. exigua</i> is presented in reports from other regions of the Eastern Pacific.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"More than one: A second eastern Pacific species of <i>Cymothoa</i> (Crustacea: Isopoda) in the SE Gulf of California, Mexico","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-12 01:32:31.861673","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2025,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2025-09-19","DateCreate":"2025-09-19","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1007/s11230-025-10241-z"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":418203,"PubliDate":2025,"Pagination":"51","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"102","Issue":"5","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43948,"SerRR":"Systematic Parasitology.
