Examination of 108 El-Kahla fish "Oblada melanura" collected from the Mediterranean sea at Alexandria showed that 27 fishes (25%) were infested with an Isopoda. Identification of the collected specimens reveal ed that they were belonging to family Cymothoidae, Genus Telotha (SCHIOEDTE and MEINERT, 1884). The morphological characteristics of this species were discussed in details. Comparing the present specim ens with the previously reported Telotha spp. showed that our material could belong to Telotha silurii (SZIDAT and SCHUBART, 1960).
