Popis: A new genus of anascan lunulitiform bryozoan, Pseudolunularia. is introduced for two new species, P. enigma and P. unguis. It is inferred that live colonies both possess basal rhizoids and are supported and stabilized by elongate avicularian mandibles. The autozooids, brooding zooids and avicularia of both species bear a striking resemblance to a parallel pair of species belonging to the genus Lunularia, L. repandus and L. cupulus.
