A total of 295 specimens of cirratulids were collected at five localities from the northeastern coast of Venezuela. Caulleriella petersenae is described as a species new to science, which is characterized by the absence of eyes and the presence of the first notopodial hooks at the chaetiger 26. On the other hand, Monticellina cf. serratiseta and Timarete caribous were recorded for the first time from Venezuela waters. All these species have been found associated to macro-algae and coral reef.
