摘要：

We describe Phrikoceros jannetae sp. n., a new cotylean polyclad species from Ghar El Melh lagoon, a natural seawater lagoon situated in the north of Tunisia. The new species is characterized by the dorsal translucent white to brownish dorsal surface, with black round dots, red microdots, white blotches arranged as discrete lateral streaks, a mid-dorsal darker band and an interrupted slender black rim. We provide some insights into the biology of this species including the plastic tentacle configuration and the variability of body form and outline within the same specimen. Phrikoceros jannetae sp. n. was found among tunicates of the species Ciona intestinalis.
