Copidognathus gasconi ( Gil & Garzón, 1979)
Syn.: Velardoacarus gasconi Gil & Garzón, 1979
Records associated with decapod crustaceans – This species was reported from gill chamber of a marine crab Peltarion spinulosum ( Crustacea: Decapoda ) in Uruguayan coast ( Gil and Garzón 1979).
Remarks – There was question on the validity of the genus Velardoacarus . Bartsch (1987) commented that Veladacarus could also be a Copidognathus species. Pepato et al. (2005) stated that
the description of Velardoacarus gasconi has a lot of inaccuracies and it is possible that Velardeacarus is a junior synonymous of Copidognathus . Bartsch (2009) kept this species under the genus Copidognathus as Copidognathus gasconi ( Gil and Garzón 1979) .
