Abstract

Two invasive bryozoan species were discovered at Dun Laoghaire Harbour, Dublin during a bryozoan survey. Watersipora subtorquata (d’Orbigny, 1852) and Tricellaria inopinata d’Hondt and Occhipinti Ambrogi, 1985 were discovered in Dun Laoghaire marina. Research shows that this is a first record for W. subtorquata in Ireland and a range extension for T. inopinata. In recent years the numbers of invasive marine species in Ireland has increased. The presence of these species within the marina and not in areas surrounding the marina suggests that they have been spread via shipping activities.
