Records are provided for the parasitic polychaete, Haematocleptes terebellidis and the commensal polychaete, Commensodorum commensalis, both associated with the lamella-worm, Terebellides stroemii, in the outer Clyde Estuary, Scotland. New records and basic morphometries are also provided for the parasitic copepods Melinnacheres terebellidis and M. steenstrupi, both ectoparasites of lamella-worms. Melinnacheres terebellidis is recorded for the first time from British waters in the North Sea and the Celtic Sea, and also from Sweden. Its host is identified as Terebellides shetlandica - a recently described species of lamella-worm. Melinnacheres steenstrupi is newly recorded from Mull, the Clyde Estuary, Campbeltown Loch, the Celtic Sea, and also from Sweden. The male of M. terebellidis is described for the first time and compared with other males of the genus
