Abstract: | Samples of simple ascidians of the genera Asterocarpa, Cnemidocarpa, Corella, and Pyura were collected from Wellington Harbour, New Zealand (41°16'S, 174° 51'E) and three species of the crustacean family Notodelphyidae were recovered, all from the branchial baskets of the ascidians. Pygodelphys novaeseelandiae (Schellenberg), and two new species of Doropygus, are described and illustrated. |
