| Summary: | Calyptooecia conuma Almeida & Souza, 2014 (Figs. 72–73) Calyptooecia conuma Almeida & Souza, 2014: 285, figs. 2–5; Almeida et al. 2015b: 5. Material examined. UFBA 1183, Camamu Bay, 13°53’S, 38°59’W, 18–20 m, coll. October 2012 (on sponge Spongosorites sp.). Remarks. Calyptooecia conuma is characterized by small spot-like colonies (Fig. 72), brooding zooids without perioral tubercles, and non-brooding zooids surrounded by 4–5 conical tubercles and a single, asymmetrically placed, suboral avicularium on almost all zooids (Fig. 73) (Almeida & Souza 2014). Only two species of Calyptooecia are known worldwide (Bock 2016). Calyptooecia insidiosa Winston, 1984 is found in the Caribbean where colonies are associated with coral undersurfaces and reef caves (Winston 1984). Calyptooecia conuma commonly encrusts calcareous nodules, shells, coralline algae and sponges (Almeida & Souza 2014). We examined a small colony attached to recesses of the rugose-textured sponge Spongosorites sp. (Fig. 11). Distribution.
