Mouthparts may be absent in male. (monocondylic, dicondylic) [Stachowitsch, 1992].

Anteriormost paired mouthpart on underside of head; borne by third cephalic segment (mandibular somite). If fully developed, bears terminal molar and incisor processes as well as palp [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Order Amphipoda):
Third paired appendage of head (cephalon); located between antennae and maxillules. Represents first pair of mouthparts and, if fully developed, consists (proximally to distally) of molar process, spine row, lacinia mobilis, incisor process, and palp. (with/without palp) [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Order Isopoda):
First pair of mouthparts, functioning as jaws, often sclerotized [Kensley and Schotte, 1989].

(Order Isopoda):
Third pair of head appendages; first (anteriormost) pair of mouthparts functioning as jaws and typically sclerotized [Wetzer et al. 1997].

(Order Isopoda):
Third paired appendage of head (cephalon); located between antennae and maxillules. Represents first pair of mouthparts and, if fully developed, consists (proximally to distally) of molar process, spine row, lacinia mobilis, incisor process, and palp, (biting/chewing, piercing/sucking = styliform) [Stachowitsch, 1992].

If fully developed, consists (proximally to distally) of molar process, pars centralis (spine row), lacinia mobilis, incisor process, and palp. Left and right mandibles differ considerably [Stachowitsch, 1992].

(Order Leptostraca):
Third paired appendage of head (cephalon); located between antennae and maxillules. Represents first pair of mouthparts and, if fully developed, consists of basal incisor and molar processes as well as distal palp [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Subclass Branchiura):
Paired, serrate mouthpart closely associated with mouth on underside of head. Typically enclosed, along with mouth and surrounding labrum and paragnaths, in proboscis. Lacks palp [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Subclass Cirripedia):
() [Anderson, 1980].
Balanus trigonus: oral cone, posterior view; and oral cone, lefft lateral view. [Anderson, 1980]
(Subclass Cirripedia):
First pair of mouthparts on head. Consists largely of gnathobase and, in acrothoracican, bears palps. Typically closely associated with labrum. (with/without palp; serrate, suctorial) [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Subclass Copepoda):
The paired limb of the somite of the cephalon posterior to antenna 2. The mandible bears a coxal gnathobase during the copepodid phase of development; it may (the fourth to sixth naupliar stages of calanoid copepods) or may not (all other copepods) bear a coxal gnathobase during naupliar phase of development [Ferrari and Dahms, in press].
(Subclass Copepoda):
The third cephalic appendage [Boxshall and Halsey, 2004].
(Subclass Mystacocarida):
Third paired appendage of cephalon; located between antennae and maxilllules. Biramous, consisting of protopod, four-segmented endopod, and sevensegmented exopod. Projection (gnathobase) of protopod extends under labrum. Serves in locomotion and feeding [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Class Ostracoda):
3rd limb (3rd head limb) [Cohen, Peterson, and Maddocks, in press].
(Class Ostracoda):
Anterior-most paired mouthpart on underside of head. Basically a biramous, limb-like appendage consisting of proximal gnathobase and distal palp (the latter with endopod and exopod). (biramous, uniramous; falcate, stylet-like = styliform) [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Class Ostracoda):
Third paired appendage of head. Mandibles flank mouth and are basically biramous, consisting of proximal gnathobase and distal palp [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Class Remipedia):
Anterior-most paired, asymmetrical mouthpart on underside of head (cephalon); lacks palp. Each mandible bears three masticatory processes (incisor process, lacinia mobilis, molar process) which lie in cavity (atrium oris) between labrum and mouth [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Superorder Syncarida):
Third paired appendage of head; located between antennae and maxillules. Represents first pair of mouthparts. If fully developed, consists of molar and incisor processes as well as palp. (with/without palp) (see also penicilla) [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Order Thermosbaenacea):
Third paired appendage of cephalon; located between antennae and maxillules. Represents first pair of mouthparts. Consists (proximally to distally) of molar process, lifting spines, lacinia mobilis, incisor process, and palp [Stachowitsch, 1992].
(Order Euphausiacea):
Third paired appendage of head (cephalon); located between antennae and maxillules. Represents first pair of mouthparts and typically consists of basal molar and incisor processes as well as a distal palp. (with/without palp) [Stachowitsch, 1992].
