Abstract
The integument of colonial kamptozoan Barentsia discreta is investigated in present work. Epidermis consists of monolayered unciliated epithelium which is covered by a microvillous cuticle composed of several layers. The floor of the atrial cavity and the frontal surface of tentacles are covered by a ciliated epithelium with a protocuticle. Sensory and secretory cells are present at the epidermis.
