Siphonostomatoida
Siphonostomatoida is an order (biology), order of copepods, containing around 75% of all the copepods that parasitise fishes. Their success has been linked to their possession of siphon-like mandibles and of a "frontal filament" to aid attachment to their hosts. Most are marine, but a few live in fresh water. There are 40 recognised families: *Archidactylinidae Izawa, 1996 *Artotrogidae Brady, 1880 *Asterocheridae Giesbrecht, 1899 *Brychiopontiidae Humes, 1974 *Caligidae Burmeister, 1835 *Calverocheridae Stock, 1968 *Cancerillidae Giesbrecht, 1897 *Codobidae Boxshall & Ohtsuka, 2001 *Coralliomyzontidae Humes & Stock, 1991 *Dichelesthiidae Milne-Edwards, 1840 *Dichelinidae Boxshall & Ohtsuka, 2001 *Dinopontiidae Murnane, 1967 *Dirivultidae Humes & Dojiri, 1980 *Dissonidae Satyu Yamaguti, Yamaguti, 1963 *Ecbathyriontidae Humes, 1987 *Entomolepididae Brady, 1899 *Eudactylinidae C.

Crustaceans
Crustaceans (from Latin meaning: "those with shells" or "crusted ones") are invertebrate animals that constitute one group of Arthropod, arthropods that are traditionally a part of the subphylum Crustacea (), a large, diverse group of mainly aquatic animal, aquatic arthropods including decapoda, decapods (shrimps, prawns, crabs, lobsters and crayfish), ostracoda, seed shrimp, branchiopoda, branchiopods, argulidae, fish lice, krill, remipedes, isopods, barnacles, copepods, Mysida, opossum shrimps, amphipods and mantis shrimp. The crustacean group can be treated as a subphylum under the clade Mandibulata. It is now well accepted that the Hexapoda, hexapods (insects and entognathans) emerged deep in the Crustacean group, with the completed pan-group referred to as Pancrustacea. The three classes Cephalocarida, Branchiopoda and Remipedia are more closely related to the hexapods than they are to any of the other crustaceans (oligostracans and multicrustaceans).
