Abstract
    Three species of whale-lice (Cyamidae: Amphipoda) are recorded from whales caught in Canadian Pacific seas: Cyamus scammoni Dall, 1872, from Rachianectes glaucus; Cyamus catodontis n. sp., from Physeter catodon; and Paracyamus boopis (Lütken, 1870), from Megaptera nodosa. Cyamus catodontis is described and illustrated.
