- Unlocking Mediterranean bryozoan diversity: seven new species unveiled after fixing a neotype for (Audouin & Savigny, 1826) (Cheilostomatida, Fenestrulinidae). Rosso, Antonietta Di Martino, Emanuela Donato, Gemma Figuerola, Blanca Gerovasileiou, Vasilis Siddiolo, Chiara Sinagra, Alessandro Sanfilippo, Rossana Sciuto, Francesco (Audouin & Savigny), the type species of Jullien, is among the most widely reported bryozoans globally. Following the loss of the original type material, presumed Mediterranean in origin based on Savigny's depiction on , we designate a neotype from a colony on deep blades off Ustica Island (Tyrrhenian Sea). Additionally, seven new species are described from various habitats across the Mediterranean: , from the semi-dark and dark zones of a submarine cave in Lesvos Island (NE Aegean Sea); , from beach-cast plastic near Palermo (NW Sicily); , from Ile-Rousse Bank (Corsica); , from meadows in Dhiaporia (Chios Island, Aegean Sea); , from outer-shelf coarse sediments off Calvi (NW Corsica); , from Trémies submarine cave, near Marseille (Gulf of Lion); and , from rootlets off Formica Isle (Egadi Archipelago, near the Sicily Strait). Five of these species are currently known only from their type localities, while and occur elsewhere. An additional species with distinct features is described but left in open nomenclature owing to the absence of an ovicell. A comprehensive review of the published images of the 77 species currently assigned to , with the identification of new diagnostic features, including kenozooids, has led to a revised diagnosis of the genus.
