In this paper the authors discuss the systematical position of the species under Lepidapedon (Lepidapedoides) Yamaguti, 1970, as well as refer it for the first time in Brasil. They transfer to this subgenus L. hancocki manter, 1940; L. longevesiculum hafeezullah, 1970 and L. manteri Hafeezullah, 1970. L. (L.) ghanensis Fischthal & Thomas, 1970 is considered a synomim of L. (L.) holocentri Siddiqi & Cable, 1960. They present a classification key for the species under Lepidapedon (Lepidapedoides) Yamaguti, 1970 and a complete description and original drawings of L. (L.) epinepheli Bravo-Hollis & Manter, 1957, also refering a new host record for it. The authors disagree about the proposition of the type species of the subgenus, L. (L.) holocentri Siddiqi & Cable, 1960, for L. (L.) levenseni (Linton, 1907) Manter, 1947 is the former one and has all the representing characters of Lepidapedon (Lepidapedoides). The trematodes were recovered from intestine of Lutjanus jocu (Bloch & Schneider) commonly named "Vermelho", from Cabo Frio, Rio de Janeiro State.
