This condition does not occur in the collection of 9 females and 5 males of /. kogiae from Australia. Based on known variability of some cyamid features ( Raga 1988), and because of the similarities of the southern California specimen to Sedlak-Wein- stein's (1992a) description of Isocyamus kogiae from the same host {Kogia brev- iceps) off Australia, we do not believe the above differences warrant erection of another species of the genus. Currently Recognized Genera of the Cyamidae As currently recognized, the family Cyamidae contains only the genera Cyamus Latreille, 1796; Isocyamus Gervais and van Beneden, 1859; Platycyamus Lutken, 1870; Syncyamus Bowman, 1955; Neocyamus Margolis, 1955; and Scutocyamus Lincoln and Hurley, 1974. Most species in the family are members of the genus Cyamus, currently containing 16 nominal species (Table 1; see also Gruner 1975,.
