Abstract
SUMMARYPseudechetus fimbriatus gen. et sp.nov. from the throat of a carangid is described. The new genus has the closest resemblance to Parechetus Pillai from which it differs in the presence of 4 processes instead of 2 on the genital segment and a pair of processes on the abdomen instead of wings. The sternal fork carries accessory tines anteriorly making it a double structure.
