REMARK

Hargis (1957, 1959) emended the generic diagnoses of Pseudomazocraes Caballero & Bravo-Hollis, 1955 , pointing out that the original description of P. monsivaisae included more than one species. However, Euzet & Wahl (1970) and Kohn et al. (1992) re-studied the type specimens, validating the original determination.

NOTE

Kohn et al. (2006) included this species in the family Mazocraeidae , not including the following records: P.monsivaisae in B. polylepis from Jalisco; in addition, the records of this monogenean species in Balistes polylepis and Carangoides otrynter from Oaxaca, and in Selene brevoortii from Jalisco are not actually recorded in the original references.
