Previous Australian records of Ascothoracida are summarised. In the Synagogidae, three new species of Gorgonolaureus Utinomi are described from primnoid (Pterostenelia plumatilis (Rousseau», paramuriceid (unidentified), and gorgoniid (Eunicelia sp.) gorgonacean hosts off Western Australia, Vietnam, and New Caledonia, respectively. The first two species are from unusually shallow depths, 80 to 100 m, the third from bathyal depths. Flatsia n.gen., with one species from 73 to 82 m depth off New…

The new species appears to be gonochoric with females generally larger than males; the find of a juvenile female smaller than any adult male tends to refute the likelihood of protandry.

Both UPGMA cluster analysis and MDS ordination reveal two main regions: a northern tropical region and a southern warm temperate region, consistent with zonation patterns of shallow-water marine invertebrates.

Photographs of the corals, their enlarged corallites and internal cavities, and the parasites, as well as a morphological account of the successive stages of gall formation and illustrations of the parasites’ nauplius larvae, are presented.

The abnormal corallites are provisionally reinterpreted as an unusual kind of petrarcid 'internal gall' in the Hawaiian deep-water coral Madrepora kauaiensis Vaughan.
Lattice organs and newly characterized submarginal pore-plates and pore-fields of the carapace in Ascothoracida (Crustacea: Thecostraca)

Lattice organs on the dorsal part of the carapace were examined by scanning electron microscopy in females, males, and/or cypridiform ascothoracid-larva I stage, for the first time ever, and limits the potential utility of Ascothoracida as an out-group for polarizing lattice organ character-state variation in Cirripedia.
