| Abstract |
Bryozoans of the orders Ctenostomata and Cheilostomata from the Kermadec Ridge have been studied and 202 species and subspecies described of which 65 are new. Two new families in the Cheilostomata Quadricellariidae and Petalostegidae - are recognised, based on existing genera. Five new genera - Onychoblestrum (Calloporidae), Brettiella (Bugulidae), Briarachnia (Arachnopusiidae), Elleschara (Exochellidae), and Tenthrenulina (Microporellidae) - are also described and two new subgenera areintroduced. The genus Galeopsis Jullien is herein recognised to be a senior synonym of Diatosula Canu & Bassler and Spiroporina sensu Brown and assigned to the Celleporidae. Buffonellaria Canu & Bassler is also included in this family. Lepralie/la Levinsen is considered to include Hippoporella Canu & Bassler and, with Cleidochasma Harmer, is incorporated in the Sertellidae. The genus Catenice/la de Blainville is shown to be valid over Vittaticella Maplestone and Caloporella MacGillivray. Based on the relatively high diversity of Kermadec Ridge material it has seemed appropriate to recognise within the suborder Ascophora a number of superfamilies. These are the Cribrilinoidea, Arachnopusioidea, Umbonuloidea, and Schizoporelloidea (based on the same or similar groupings of other authors) and Catenicelloidea, Hippothooidea and Celleporoidea (which represent new combinations). |
