Abstract
One new species of diplectanid, Pseudorhabdosynochus shenzhenensis n. sp., is reported and described from the marine fish Epinephelus coioides off Nan'ao, Shenzhen, China. It can be differentiated from previously described species of the same genus by features of the haptoral and vaginal hard-parts. A second species, P. serrani Yamaguti, 1953, originally described from Serranus sp. from the western Pacific Ocean off the Celebes (now called Sulawesi), is redescribed based on new material from E. coioides.
