Cover Story: Collections in two submarine caves of Lesvos Island (Aegean Sea) provided colonies of cheilostome bryozoans assigned to Onychocella marioni Jullien, 1882, O. vibraculifera Neviani, 1895, and Smittipora disjuncta Canu and Bassler, 1930, and a species previously reported as Onychocellidae sp. 1. This material allowed detailed observations and first scanning electron microscopy of some diagnostic characters leading to (i) updating the descriptions of these four species; (ii) resurrecting Floridinella arculifera Canu and Bassler, 1927, previously synonymised with Caleschara minuta (Maplestone, 1909), suggesting for it the new combination Tretosina arculifera; (iii) and introducing the new genus Bryobifallax for S. disjuncta.
