A new species of monostiliferoidean nemertean, Tetrastemma fozensis, from the mantle cavity of the bivale mollusc Scrobicularia plana, in the Ria de Foz, north-western Spain, is described and illustrated. Other nemerteans from the mantle cavity of Scrobicularia collected in Poole Harbour, southern England, are provisionally identified as conspecific with the Ria de Foz material, but show certain anatomical differences whose taxonomic significance cannot at present be assessed.
