Abstract
The new association between the cymothoid isopod Livoneca redmani Leach, 1818, parasitizing the carangid fish Oligoplites saurus (Bloch y Schneider, 1801; Pisces: Carangidae), collected with beach towin net, at the Beach Barrancas, Veracruz is given. A diagnosis of the isopod, as well as three figures of this and one of the host.
