Three new species of poecilostomatoid copepods are described as associates of the scleractinian coral Gardineroseris planulata (Dana) from the Moluccas: Sociellus geminus n. sp., Odontomolgus mucosus n. sp. and O. unioviger n. sp. The genus Sociellus is transferred from the Rhynchomolgidae to the Anchimolgidae. The previously described four species of the genus Paramolgus (P. angustus, P. eparmatoides, P. gibberulus, and P. setellus) of the Rhynchomolgidae, associated with Gardineroseris planulata, are transferred as well to the genus Anchimolgus in the Anchimolgidae.
