Abstract: Living brachiopods were collected by dredge from a rock substrate at a depth of c. 35 m near Golam Head in outer Galway Bay during June 1986 from the RV 'Lough Beltra'. Two living species were dredged up; both inarticulate Neocrania anomala and the articulate Terebratulina septentrionalis. Some taxonomic descriptions are given, in addition to distributional information.
