Abstract

Two new species of the cheilostomate bryozoan genus Stylopoma are described from Brazil-Stylopoma anacarolinae sp. nov. and Stylopoma priscilae sp. nov. Stylopoma anacarolinae sp. nov. exhibits zooids with single or paired small avicularia and an orifice with a U-shaped sinus, in contrast to the long avicularia and orifice with a teardrop-shaped sinus of Stylopoma priscilae sp. nov. In addition to taxonomic description, a revised comparative table of living species worldwide is provided. (AU)
