| Summary: | Abstract Cover illustration . Cycliophorans have been discovered in the late 1960s. They constitute a group of microscopic commensals that live attached to the mouth parts of clawed lobsters. So far females have been known only from immature individuals. In this issue of the Journal of Morphology (pp. 850–869) Neves and coauthors describe the morphology and ultrastructure of the free and fully mature female of Cycliophora. The cover image shows a free‐swimming female of the undescribed Symbion sp. from Homarus gammarus . |
