title: Acanthochondria limandae
text: Acanthochondria limandae is a species of copepods in the family Chondracanthidae. They are host-specific ectoparasites of two species of flatfish: the common dab and the European flounder. They attach themselves to the bases of the gill arches of their hosts. They can infest as much as 2 to 30% of fish in a given population. Acanthochondria limandae was first described by the Danish zoologist Henrik Nikolai Krøyer in 1863 as Chondracanthus limandae.
