Membranipora is a genus of bryozoan in the family Membraniporidae.

"Suspension feeding adaptations to extreme flow environments in a marine bryozoan."

A cyphonautes is a larva of an ectoprocta bryozoan.

The colonies of this bryozoan are also known to interrupt nutrient uptake by seaweed.

Usually a fish and an oligochaete or polychaete worm, and in one case a bryozoan.

This bryozoan is a colonial organism characterized by a thin, mat-like encrustation, white to gray in color.

Colloquially known as the Gulf weed bryozoan.

Individuals in bryozoan (ectoproct) colonies are called zooids, since they are not fully independent animals.

"Inducible aggression and intraspecific competition for space in a marine bryozoan, Membranipora membranacea".

Plumatella fungosa sometimes called the fungoid bryozoan is a species of bryozoans from the family Plumatellidae.

Ostrovskia is an extinct bryozoan which existed in what is now Turkey during the late Tortonian.

Over 1300 species have been described and many have a two-host life cycle, involving a fish and an annelid worm or bryozoan.

These finds include but are not limited to seven species of calcareous cyclostome bryozoans as well as a soft-bodied ctenosome bryozoan.

This pink color is produced by the xanthophyllic pigment hopkinsiaxanthin, most likely obtained through feeding on the cheilostomatous bryozoan, Integripelta bilabiata.

Korotneff observed a myxozoan in the bryozoan, Plumatella fungosa, in 1892, which he described as Myxosporidium bryozoides.

It is sometimes associated with the honeysuckle tunicate (Perophora viridis), the stolons of which intertwine with the branches of the bryozoan.

A fast-growing invasive bryozoan off the northeast and northwest coasts of the USA has reduced kelp forests so much that it has affected local fish and invertebrate populations.

Chasmatopora is an extinct bryozoan which existed in what is now Mongolia, China, Estonia, Russia, Poland, Argentina, the United States and Canada.

The generic name refers to Başyayla, the area in which the material for the bryozoan was collected, and the species epithet is named after Elsa Gliozzi, who collected the material.

It is of scientific importance as it is one of the few locations that has the perfect salinity for the growth of the trembling sea mat (Victorella pavida), a bryozoan.

It is generally confined in the USA to stream in northern States or to mountain streams further south where it may be found as the dominant bryozoan in small mountain lakes at around 4000m altitude.

In 2009 another molecular phylogeny study, using a combination of genes from mitochondria and the cell nucleus, concluded that Bryozoa is a monophyletic phylum, in other words includes all the descendants of a common ancestor that is itself a bryozoan.
