Well, the problem with common names is that people call different creatures the same name. You are talking about cnidarians, which are in a whole different phylum from that of copepods. Cnidaria do have stinging potential, that is for sure. I still think that they can be seasonal. I have never heard of "sea lice" in the VI, and from the Wikipedia articles, I see why.
