Abstract

|
|
Two new species of the genus Stelletta (Astrophorida: Ancorinidae), S. spinulosa n. sp. and S. calyx n. sp., are described from the waters around Gageodo Island (Sonuksando) and Ulleungdo Island, Korea. S. spinulosa n. sp. is similar to S. crassispicula (Sollas, 1886) in the feature of entire animal, but differs from it in the shape of orthotriaene and the form and size of oxyasters. S. calyx n. sp. resembles to S. crater Dendy, 1924 in the shape of sponge, but the new species has four size categories of oxyaster whereas S. carter has no oxyaster.
