Abstract

Abstract

Fourteen species of Neomonoceratina from the West Pacific margins are considered in the present paper, of which two species and one subspecies are described as new.Lectotypes have been designated for three of Brady's 1868 species (N.bataviana, N.iniqua and N.rhomboidea) and also for two of Kingma's 1948 species (N.macropora and N.microreticulata).The taxonomic confusion within the genus, particularly with respect to N.crispata, N.delicata, N.dongtaiensis, N.iniqua and N.microreticulata, is clarified and the zoogeographical implication of the distribution of the genus is discussed.
