Myopedicellina, a replacement name for Myosoma Robertson (Entoprocta: Pedicellinidae)

Myosoma is a genus name proposed in 1900 by Alice Robertson for a colonial species of Entoprocta, Myosoma spinosa Robertson. Myosoma has been used for this genus up to the present time, which now includes two named species. However, we determined that Robertson's name is preoccupied by the parasitoid wasp genus name Myosoma (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), described by Brullé in 1846. Therefore, we propose another epithet for this entoproct genus: Myopedicellina new replacement name. Brief descriptions of the genus Myopedicellina and the two species belonging to it are provided.
