Abstract
The Aotearoa New Zealand Dicyemida fauna is effectively unknown (Table 9.1; Fig. 9.1). The total number of recorded taxa from the New Zealand region is six species in two genera, a total that has remained unchanged since the previous review by Hochberg (2009). The only change made here is to update the name given in Hochberg (2009) as Dicyemennea rostratum Short & Hochberg, 1969, to D. rostrata. A checklist of extant marine New Zealand Dicyemida is provided.
