The cymothoid isopod Elthusa epinepheli sp. nov., a branchial parasite of the blacksaddle grouper Epinephelus howlandi (Serranidae, Epinephelinae) from the coral reef of New Caledonia (Southwestern Pacific), is described and figured.Within the genus, E. epinepheli shows some similarity with E. raynaudii and E. myripristae. The ovigerous female of E. epinepheli can be distinguished from E. raynaudii by a less ovate body; cephalon deeply immersed in pereonite 1; eyes almost concealed by the amphicephalic processes; pereonites 3–7 distinctly decreasing in size (width and length); pleonites 1–5 distinctly increasing in width; and pleotelson larger. E. epinepheli can be distinguished from E. myripristae by the anterior margin of the cephalon being rounded in dorsal view and all pleonites being visible. E. epinepheli is the first species of Elthusa reported from the host genus Epinephelus.

Elthusa epinepheli sp. nov. (Isopoda, Cymothoidae), parasite branchial du mérou Epinephelus howlandi du récif corallien de Nouvelle-Calédonie, est décrit et représenté. A l’intérieur du genre, E. epinepheli est morphologiquement proche des deux espèces E. raynaudii et E. myripristae. Par rapport à E. raynaudii, la femelle ovigère de E. epinepheli est caractérisée par un corps moins ovale, un céphalon profondément inclus dans le péréonite 1, des yeux presque entièrement dissimulés par les processus amphicéphaliques, des péréonites dont la taille (largeur et longueur) diminue nettement du troisième au septième, des pléonites dont la largeur augmente nettement du premier au cinquième et un pléotelson plus grand. Le bord antérieur arrondi de son céphalon et le fait que tous les pléonites soient visibles permet de distinguer E. epinepheli de E. myripristae. E. epinepheli est le premier Elthusa signalé sur des poissons du genre Epinephelus.

A detailed ecological study was conducted for three years (2001–03) on a 5 km stretch of well-developed coral reef facing an industrial site in the southernmost section of the Jordanian coast of the Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea. The degree of modification associated with the prevailing ecological factors was assessed with respect to species diversity and abundance of the major groups of the macrobenthic community: corals, bivalves, hydrozoans, echinoderms, sponges and macroalgae. Three locations of two depths each – 6 and 12 m – were selected and surveyed using the visual census point-intercept method. The actual area of the survey covered about 2250 m2. Macrobenthic communities occurring close to the industrial jetty were characterized by low diversity and the obvious dominance of soft coral (16–30% cover). In the deep transects (12 m) hard coral cover was higher than that in the shallow transects (30–55%). Correlation analyses indicated that species richness increased with increasing distance from the industrial jetty. Species richness of other macrobenthos was also higher as depth increased. The results revealed that the distribution and abundance of coral, echinoderms, hydrozoans and macroalgae were correlated with the relative importance of bottom modification within the various locations in the entire study area. However, no distinct influence of location or depth on the identities of most macrobenthic species was indicated.
