Abstract

The cheilostome Bryozoa fauna of 65 marine fouling panels exposed at Yokosuka, Maizuru, and Sasebo, Japan, in 1966 and 1967 was studied. Nineteen species were recorded, described and photographed. Based on faunal variations between the sites, a list of the principal species diagnostic of each was prepared. The panels at the Yokosuka site were characterized by large quantities of Watersipora subovoidea, Bugula neritina, and B. californica; the Maizuru site by Bugula neritina and Electra tenella; and the Sasebo site by Schizoporella unicornis and Celleporaria aperta. Faunal resemblance between the three stations on the basis of the recorded Bryozoa occurrence indicate Maizuru and Sasebo were most similar in Bryozoa composition and Sasebo and Yokosuka the least similar of the three sites.
