Kritsky, Delane C., Galli, Paolo & Tingbao, Yang, 2007, Dactylogyrids (Monogenoidea) parasitizing the gills of spinefoots (Teleostei, Siganidae): revision of Tetrancistrum Goto and Kikuchi, 1917, with descriptions of two new species from Siganus spp. of the Red Sea and Celebes, Journal of Natural History 41 (25 - 28), pp. 1513-1551 : 1546

Pseudohaliotrematoides bengalensis Gupta and Khanna, 1974

Gupta and Khanna (1974) described this species from an unidentified ‘‘marine fish (Teleost)’’ from Indian waters. Specimens of P. bengalensis were not available for study and the original description does not allow appropriate generic placement. Thus, the species is considered a species inquirenda.

Pseudohaliotrematoides chaetodipteri (Caballero and Bravo-Hollis, 1961) Yamaguti, 1963

Caballero and Bravo-Hollis (1961) proposed Parancylodiscoides Caballero and Bravo- Hollis, 1961, with P. chaetodipteri from Chaetodipterus zonatus (Girard) (Ephippidae) from the coastal zone of the Mexican Pacific Ocean as its type species. Yamaguti (1963) synonymized Parancylodiscoides with Pseudohaliotrematoides and transferred the type species to Pseudohaliotrematoides as P. chaetopteri (a lapsus). Young’s (1967) proposal of Pseudohaliotrematoides as a junior subjective synonym of Tetrancistrum effectively reestablished Parancylodiscoides , to which he returned P. chaetodipteri . Cezar et al. (1999) accepted Parancylodiscoides , when they described a second species of the genus.
