Khaled Mahmoud Abdelsalam
The present paper presents taxonomical information on a small bryozoan fauna collected from the Eastern Mediterranean coast of Egypt. Eight species of benthic bryozoans are reported from the trash crop of a trawling net in the area between Damietta and El-Manzalah. These species belong to 7 genera in 7 families of the orders Cyclostomata, Ctenostomata and Cheilostomata. Four species (Hornera sp., Nolella dilatata, Copidozoum planum and Schizomavella triangularis) are new records of the Egyptian Mediterranean waters. All species are described and photographed.
