Abstract
Polydorella smurovi sp.n. is described from an underwater coral bank near the Dachlak Archipelago (Red Sea). This new species has alternating sexual and asexual (paratomy) reproduction, short caruncle, specialised broom‐like setae on segment 5 and capillary setae in the neuropodia of the same segment. Worms inhabited the surface of a red sponge covering a block of a dead coral. The genus Polydorella Augener is re‐established and its diagnosis altered.
