Abstract

Two species in the genus Stelletta, Stelletta crusta n. sp and Stelletta maxima Thiele, 1898 have been Collected from Geomundo Island. Stelletta crusta n. sp is similar to Stelletta tetrafurcata Hoshino, 1981 in the clade of the dichotriaenes which is trifurcate or multifurcate but both species differ in spicule size and composition. Stelletta maxima is first recorded in the Korean fauna.
