Taxonomic remark Oralien Bassett-Smith, 1899. Oakley (1927) made a contribution to great our knowledge of chondracanthid copepods in the greatest conclarifying fusion three old Lernentoma de 1822; concerning genera, namely, Blainville, Medesicaste Kr0yer, 1863; and Oralien Bassett-Smith, 1899. to According him, Oralien differs from Lernentoma mainly in having two pairs of "lateral processes" and "tripartite, rounded" legs. However, after examining the 1868), was to be — specimens deposited of O. and them with the L. asellina triglae comparing specimens of in USNM, UZM, SAM, and SSM, I found that the genus Oralien should be synonymized with the genus Lernentoma, for the so-called "tripartite" legs in O. triglae are in reality not such, but merely have the outer protopodal surface slightly swollen. As to the difference in the number of "lateral processes" in the trunk region, this feature is of specific difference rather than of the generic rank. Thus, the species name O. triglae (de Blainville, 1822) [details]
