| Abstract: | Summary
Brettiopsis gen.nov. is erected within the family Scrupariidae. Its affinities with the genera Brettia, Leiosalpinx, Brettiella, Bugulella and Scruparia are briefly discussed. Its type species, Brettia triplex Hastings, is redescribed on the basis of new material collected in the southern part of the Weddell Sea by the RV Polarsirkel. Bivalved brood chambers, previously unknown in this species, are described and illustrated. |
