Neoeridotrypella is an extinct genus of bryozoan of the family Eridotrypellidae, known from the Permian period. Its colonies were typically branching or tree-shaped though sometimes encrusting or massive, and the walls of its zooecial chambers were thicker within the exozone and full of tiny tubules.[1]

Species

  • Neoeridotrypella pulchra (Morozova, 1970) was the first Neoeridotrypella species described.
  • Neoeridotrypella schilti (1997)[1]
  • Neoeridotrypella missionensis (2000) formed only encrusting colonies, which sometimes encrusted upon other bryozoans.[2]
