Diagnoses of new family,new genus and new species Microporella vacuatus sp.nov.(Pl.Ⅰ,Figs.1～2) Colony encrusting,yellowish or grey-white,forming an irregularly shaped encrustation.Zooids oval,subhexangular or rectangular,arranged quincuncially,separated by fine sutures.Primary orifice D-shaped,slightly straight proximally,nearly rounded at either proximal corner;with a conspicuous,small condyle at either proximal corner;peristome slightly raised.4～5 oral spines present in ordinary zooid;1 oral spine not concealed at either proximal side of the ovicells or all the oral spines entirely concealed in fertilized zooids.Frontal wall gently convex,coarsely granulated,perforated by small,various-sized,subcircular pores whose inner borders are smooth or has 1～2 denticles.Operculum yellowish,equal to the orifice in shape and size,with a robust,brown sclerite along the arched margin,marked with many granules on the frontal surface. Ascopore circular,cribrate,situated median-proximally to the orifice,separated from proximal edge of orifice by a very short span,with raised outer peripheral margin forming a lowered umbo.Avicularium single,located at one side of the frontal wall,with an entire crossbar;Avicularian chamber expanded and marked with granules;Rostrum triangular,directed laterally,rostral groove slightly curved towards the basal side.Mandible with a setiform distal extension and without a hook at either side.Hyperstomial ovicell globose,longer than wide,embedded basally,marked with a row of marginal pores and a row of radial ribs disto-laterally;frontal surface convex,nodular,with a few small pores scattered over its surface.With basal porechambers,2 distally and 3 disto-laterally.Ancestrulae absent. This new species resembles Microporella elegans Suwa & Mawatari,1998 in the shape of zooid,the presence of the cribrate ascopore,the direction and chamber character of the single avicularium and the appearance of the mandible.But differs from that species in that the frontal pores of the new species not having a cribrate bottom,and that the setiform mandible not having a hook at each side of the base.
