わが国から魚類寄生虫あるいはプランクトンとして, 以下の6属19種および2未同定種を含むニセエラジラミ科カイアシ類が報告されている: Dermoergasilus amplectens, Ergasilus auritus, E. bani, E. briani, E. divergens, E. fidiformis, E. genuinus, E. hypomesi, E. orientalis, E. parasiluri, E. plecoglossi, E. versicolor, E. wilsoni, E. zacconis, Ergasilus sp. 1, Ergasilus sp. 2, Neoergasilus japonicus, Nipergasilus bora, Paraergasilus longidigitus, Thersitina gasterostei, T. kasaharai. わが国で出版された文献(1895-2007年)に基づき, 各種の情報を目録としてまとめた. これにより, 6属15種のニセエラジラミ類が8目12科22種の魚類から報告されていることが明らかになった. また, 成体雌の形態に基づいて本邦産ニセエラジラミ類の検索表を作成した.

Based on the literature published between the years 1895 and 2007, a checklist is compiled for the following 19 named species and 2 unidentified species belonging to 6 genera in the copepod family Ergasilidae that were reported as fish parasites or plankton from Japan: Dermoergasilus amplectens, Ergasilus auritus, E. bani, E. briani, E. divergens, E. fidiformis, E. genuinus, E. hypomesi, E. orientalis, E. parasiluri, E. plecoglossi, E. versicolor, E. wilsoni, E. zacconis, Ergasilus sp. 1, Ergasilus sp. 2, Neoergasilus japonicus, Nipergasilus bora, Paraergasilus longidigitus, Thersitina gasterostei and T. kasaharai. The checklist shows that 15 species are known as parasites from 22 species of fish in 12 families from 8 orders. A key to Japanese ergasilids based on the morphology of adult females is also given.
