Abstract
Five species described by Jullien and/or Calvet from the NE Atlantic are redescribed and stabilized by typification: Hippothoa amoena, Schizoporella confusa, S. jullieni, S. ovum and Smittia guernei. Three new synonymies are established: Schizoporella jullieni with Hippothoa amoena, S. ovum with Escharina alderi, and Escharella pseudopunctata with Smittia guernei. A new trypostegid genus, Pulpeirina gen. nov., is erected for H. amoena. Three new combinations are introduced.
Highlights
Towards the end of the nineteenth century several oceanographic expeditions by the research vessels Travailleur, l’Hirondelle and Talisman collected samples in the Northeast Atlantic

Summary
Towards the end of the nineteenth century several oceanographic expeditions by the research vessels Travailleur, l’Hirondelle and Talisman collected samples in the Northeast Atlantic. Five species described by Jullien and/or Calvet from the NE Atlantic are redescribed and stabilized by typification: Hippothoa amoena, Schizoporella confusa, S. jullieni, S. ovum and Smittia guernei. Hippothoa amoena was described by Jullien & Calvet (1903) for three samples collected on shells at two stations near Pico Island, Azores, at depths between 130 and 318 m.
