Shrijnana here: 

Dementors aren't mentioned in FB by the name 'dementor', but the
description of the Lethifold sounds remarkably like them. 

"It resembles a black clock.... which glides along the ground" pg. 25
US hardcover edition

and on pg 27 "the Patronus is the only spell known to repel the
lethifold".

It also says that it suffocates the victims, then digests them,
leaving nothing behind. YUK! Maybe demontors are part lethifold... but
then who'd want to breed with them????
