Distribution: Lernanthropus atrox was originally described from Australian waters as parasitic on Chrysophrys auratus (as Pagrus guttalatus ) by Heller (1865) . Kabata (1979a) subsequently reported a single male specimen of L. atrox from Acanthopagrus australis (as Mylio australis ) collected at Tangalooma in Moreton Bay by P.C. Young in February 1964 . Kabata (1979a) considered L. atrox to be rather rare but we found it to be common on A. australis in Moreton Bay. Roubal (1981) reported L. atrox from the same host caught off northern New South Wales , and Roubal et al . (1983) reported it from Chrysophrys auratus taken off Coffs Harbour. In a more detailed study, Roubal et al . (1996) found a significant difference in the prevalence of L. atrox on C. auratus between the estuarine (prevalence = 18.8%) and the offshore populations (70.1%) at Port Hacking, Sydney. Byrnes (1988) recorded it on A. australis , A. butcheri (Munro, 1949) and A. latus (Houttuyn, 1782) collected at numerous localities around the coast of Australia including: Carnarvon and Broome (WA), Brisbane (QLD), and Coffs Harbour, Newcastle and Eden (NSW). This species has also been repeatedly recorded in Japanese waters ( Shishido, 1898 ; Yamaguti, 1936 ; Shiino, 1955 , 1959 ; Ho & Do, 1985 ) where it occurs on several sparid fishes including Chrysophrys auratus (as Pagrosomus unicolor ), P. major (Temminck & Schlegel) and Acanthopagrus schlegelii (Bleeker, 1854) (as Sparus macrocephalus and as A. schlegelii ). Lernanthropus atrox has also been reported from China on A. schlegelii (as Sparus macrocephalus ) ( Chin, 1947 ; Song & Chen, 1976 ). In Brazilian Atlantic waters, L. atrox was recorded on Pagrus pagrus (Linnaeus, 1758) by Luque (1996) , although the geographically disjunct nature of this record invites closer comparison with L. sarbae Kensley & Grindley, 1973 , described from South African waters.
