This paper reports on part of the species of the marine isopod genus Serolis (Crustacea, Flabellifera, Serolidae) collected from benthic stations performed during one of the cruises of the Brazil ian Navy Oc/S "Almirante Saldanha" along southern South America. The species reported are Serolis polccris Richardson, 1911, Serolis elliptica Sheppard, 1933, Serolis uaperta Moreira, 1971, and Serolis foresti Bastida & Torti, 1970. A complete synonymy is given for each of these species, as well as the main distinctive characteristics enabling its ready recognition. Some remarks are provided on features not lengthned treated on previous accounts. The geographi cal distribution of all named taxa is given. Serolis uaperta is for the first time reported from off State of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil) and Uruguay, extending considerably southernwards its southern limit of distribution. Both Serolis foresti and Serolis elliptica are also for the first time recorded from off Uruguay.

Estuda-se no presente trabalho parte do total das espécies de isopodes do gênero Sevolis (Crustácea, Flabellifera) coletadas em algumas estações benticas realizadas pelo N/Oc. "Almirante Saldanha" ao largo da costa ocidental da America do Sul. São as seguintes as espécies estudadas: Sevolis polavis Richardson, 1.911, Sevolis elliptioa Sheppard, 1933, Sevolis uapevta Moreira, 1971 e Sevolis fovesti Bastida & Torti, 1970. Para cada espécie é dada completa sinonímia, assim como as principais características, possibilitando sua rápida e fácil identificação. Igualmente, são feitas observações sobre características varias ligeiramente men cionadas em trabalhos anteriores. Sevolis uapevta é pela primeira vez assi nalada ao largo do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul e Uruguai, o que vem estender consideravelmente o limite sul de ocorrência da espécie. Sevolis fovesti e Sevolis elliptica são também, pela primeira vez, registradas ao largo do Uruguai
