Table 4. Species of Plectanocotylidae and their hosts.

Nine genera were recognized in the family Plectanocotylidae Monticelli, 1903 in WoRMS (2021) but after Mamaev we consider that Plectanocotyloides is a junior synonym of Triglicola. We include Octolabea, although it was separated from the Plectanocotylidae by Yamaguti (1963). Genera are in alphabetical order. Finally, this table includes nine genera and 20 species.
