Resumo

Five specimens of cymothoid isopod Glossobius auritus were sampled from the stomach content of two Dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) captured off Mazatlán, Gulf of California, representing the second appearance of the species in the Eastern Pacific since the unique record, 38 years ago in Guerrero, Mexico. There is no evidence that G. auritus parasites Dolphinfish, but it is known that the latter includes flying fish (recognized as hosts of Glossobius species) as important components within their diet.
