Abstract | Two new species of Serolidae are described from deep waters in the Coral Sea: Acutiserolis cidaris sp.nov. from 891-1491 m depth and Caecoserolis novaecaledoniae sp. nov. from 500-2750 m depth. A. cidaris is compared with A.bromleyana, illustrated and briefly diagnosed, from the Southern Ocean. A. bromleyana may be a variable species widely distributed in the Southern Ocean and more than one similar species exist in deep seas in lower latitudes. Both genera are rediagnosed. |
