    No full text
    Genus Rosulapelta gen. nov. Type species. Rosulapelta rosetta sp. nov. Etymology. From Latin rosula, little rose, and peltus, small shield, for the characteristic decoration of frontal shield. Diagnosis. Zooids with oral spines, a raised costal shield reduced to a rosette, a small porous area surrounded by a circular rim, and smooth or pseudoporous hyperstomial ooecium not closed by operculum.Published as part of Winston, Judith E. & Vieira, Leandro M., 2013, Systematics of interstitial encrusting bryozoans from southeastern Brazil, pp. 101-146 in Zootaxa 3710 (2) on page 121, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3710.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/24812

    Reptadeonella leilae Almeida, Souza, Sanner & Vieira, 2015 (Figs. 36–37) Reptadeonella leilae Almeida, Souza, Sanner & Vieira, 2015c: 362, figs. 33–36, 42 (cum syn.). Material examined. UFBA 1174, Camamu Bay, 13°53’S, 38°59’W, 18–20 m, coll. October 2012 (on sponge Halichondria sp.). Remarks. Reptadeonella leilae is characterized by unilaminar encrusting colonies (Fig. 36), autozooids with a tubular peristome, a circular spiramen and no avicularia (Fig. 37) (Almeida et al. 2015c). The species grows on small substrata such as calcareous nodules (Almeida et al. 2015c). Other Reptadeonella species are frequently found encrusting rocks, other bryozoans, calcareous nodules and algae, corals and shells (e.g., Marcus 1939; Soule 1961; Winston 1982b; Hayward & Ryland 1999; Tilbrook et al. 2001; Tilbrook 2006; Winston & Vieira 2013; Almeida et al. 2015c). Reptadeonella leilae was found attached to the smooth-textured sponge Halichondria sp., representing the first record of an association with sponges in the genus. Distribution. Atlantic: endemic to Brazil (Bahia) (Almeida et al. 2015c).Published as part of Almeida, Ana C. S., Souza, Facelucia B.

    Allotherenia sabulosa sp. nov. (Fig. 19; Table 17) Material examined. Holotype: MZUSP 762, near BIOTA Stn 205, 15 m. Paratypes: MZUSP 671, # 1 [2 specimens], near BIOTA Stn 205, 15 m. Etymology. From the Latin sabulosus, sandy; from sabulum sand. Description. Colonies encrusting, unilaminar, on small mineral grains. Zooids relatively flat with regular small funnel-shaped pseudopores and 1–4 large marginal pores at the zooidal corners. Zooids have raised lateral edges, with distinct margin. Orifice almost circular with a shallow, subquadrate proximal sinus and small, downward sloping condyles. Peristome developed as a strong and conspicuous collar around the orificial fringe. Articulated oral spines absent. Avicularia absent. Ovicell hyperstomial, smooth ooecium, with raised proximal calcified band. Remarks. A single colony of Allotherenia sabulosa sp. nov. was found on a sand grain from Station 211 and three additional specimens from near station 205. Distribution. São Paulo state, Brazil.Published as part of Winston, Judith E. & Vieira, Leandro M., 2013, Systematics of interstitial encrusting bryozoans from southeastern Brazil, pp. 101-146 in Zootaxa 3710 (2) on page 129, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3710.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/24812

November 2002 by BIOTA /FAPESP/Bentos Marinho Project.</p> <p> <b>Remarks.</b> <i>Reptadeonella granulosa</i> is an interstitial bryozoan species with small white colonies readily distinguished from congeners by small zooid size, a robust frontal shield and lack of avicularia (Winston & Vieira 2013). As pointed by Winston & Vieira (2013), this species resembles <i>Adeona tubulifera</i> sensu Marcus (1939, p. 152, pl. 11, fig. 19A, B) from Paraná State, giving evidence that records of <i>R. tubulifera</i> from Brazil may represent a different species.</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> Atlantic: Brazil (São Paulo); sublittoral.</p>Published as part of <i>Almeida, Ana C.
