  • This paper describes three cyclostomatous bryozoans belonging to the family Tubuliporidae Johnston, 1838 from Korean waters. It was carried out with the materials which were collected from three localities during the period from 2011 to 2017. As a result of the present study, three cyclostomatous bryozoans, Exidmonea intercalata Liu, Liu & Zágoršek, 2019, Qingdaoella conaria Liu, Liu & Zágoršek, 2019 and Tubulipora perforata Liu, Liu & Zágoršek, 2019 are newly added to the Korean bryozoan fauna. Furthermore, two genera, Exidmonea David, Mongereau & Pouyet, 1972 and Qingdaoella Liu, Liu & Zágoršek, 2019, are reported for the first time from Korea. These species were previously known only in Qingdao, China, which belongs to the temperate zone influenced by the Kuroshio Current. Descriptions and illustrations of the three cyclostomatous bryozoans using Scanning Electron Microscopy are provided in this study.

  • Four cyclostomatous bryozoans from Korea belong to the genera Bicrisia, Nevianipora, Tubulipora and Crisia are described here for the first time. Of which, Bicrisia erecta Mawatari & Mawatari, 1973, Nevianopora pulcherrima (Kirkpatrick, 1890) and Tubulipora similis Liu in Liu, Yin & Ma, 2001 are newly added to the Korean bryozoan fauna, and Crisia spissus n. sp. is new to science. These species in this study are identified based on three features, which are its pseudopore, gonozooids and ooeciostomes. Two genera, Bicrisia and Nevianopora, are new to the Korean bryozoan fauna. As a result of this study, nine Korean cyclostomatous bryozoans in seven genera, five families are reported.

  • In the family Crisiidae (Bryozoa: Cyclostomata), 90 species have been recognized worldwide in seven genera: Bicrisia d'Orbigny, 1853, Crisia Lamouroux, 1812, Crisidia Milne Edwards, 1838, Crisiella Borg, 1924, Crisiona Canu & Bassler, 1928, Filicrisia d'Orbigny, 1853 and Unicrisia d'Orbigny, 1853. Four species in Crisiidae are described from 11 localities from 2008 to 2014, resulting in two new distributional records and two new species in Korea. The new additions to the fauna are: Crisia cuneata Maplestone, 1905, C. elongata Milne Edwards, 1838, C. jejuensis n. sp. and Filicrisia cygnus n. sp. A total of seven Korean crisiids with the addition of four species reported herein are recorded and distributed in three genera: Bicrisia, Crisia and Filicrisia. Accordingly, the Korean cyclostomatous bryozoans come to be 12 species, in eight genera, and five families. All of Korean Crisia eburneodenticulata specimens needed to be reexamined, thus this species is tentatively deleted from the Korean bryozoan fauna.
