Abstract
    Three new Desmodoridae species are described from the Bay of Morlaix (Brittany), Perspiria megamphida sp.n. and Desmodora granulata sp.n. The type species of Spirinia, S. parasitifera (Bastian, 1865) is redescribed: additional morphological information is given on the head structure and the copulatory apparatus. The two subgenera of Spirinia : S. (Spirinia) Gerlach, 1963 and S. (Perspiria) Wieser & Hopper, 1967, are raised to genus level.
