Loxosomella tonsoria (Entoprocta: Loxosomatidae) was found associated with the polynoid polychaete Lepidonotus clava collected among the algae and debris scraped from the intertidal level at the rocky shore of Limens (Pontevedra, Spain). New features are added to the original description, together with the first description of its buds. Host specificity of the genus and distribution of this species are discussed.
