Two additional new species are introduced based on hitherto unpublished material. For this group of species, a new genus, <i>Scutoplites</i> <strong>n. gen.</strong>, is described, characterized by, among other features, a well-developed scutum that covers the frontal membrane like a well-fitting lid. The new genus includes the following species: <i>Scutoplites marsupiatus</i> <strong>n. comb.</strong> (as the type species), <i>Scutoplites clausus</i> <strong>n. comb.</strong>, <i>Scutoplites saojorgensis</i> <strong>n. comb.</strong>, <i>Scutoplites reverteri</i> <strong>n. comb.</strong>, <i>Scutoplites hamartia</i> <strong>sp. nov.</strong>, <i>Scutoplites virgulus</i> <strong>sp. nov.</strong>, <i>Scutoplites azorensis</i> <strong>sp. nov.</strong>, <i>Scutoplites burocraticus</i> <strong>sp. nov.</strong> and <i>Scutoplites batmani</i> <strong>sp. nov.</strong> Most species of the genus are present in the Azores or in nearby waters. <i>Notoplites americanus</i> should now be considered a junior synonym for <i>Notoplites clausus</i> (Canu &amp; Bassler, 1920).","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Unexpected diversity in North Atlantic deep waters hidden under <i>Scrupocellaria marsupiata</i> (Bryozoa: Cheilostomatida)","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2025-08-07 01:34:44.814756","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2025,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2025-07-31","DateCreate":"2025-07-31","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.11646/zootaxa.5618.3.2"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":410280,"PubliDate":2025,"Pagination":"326-350","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"5618","Issue":"3","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":57347,"SerRR":"Zootaxa.
