SYNOPSIS. Tintinnida of the New York Bight (a bend in the coastline) were identified during the 1‐year period August 1973–August 1974. Recurring genera included Stenosemella and Tintinnopsis ; seasonal genera were mainly the hyaline Favella, Metacylis , and Helicostomella ; exotic or unusual genera included Parafavella and Ptychocylis. Large size differences in loricae were found seasonally, related apparently, to water temperature.
