To the present there are only two records of the order Antipatharia from Brazil.<br>Se describe una nueva especie, Cirripathes secchini (Cnidaria: Antipatharia) proveniente de la región de Abrolhos (Bahia, Brasil), que constituye además el primer registro de este género en Brasil. Otras dos especies (Antipathes hirta, primer registro en el Océano Atlántico sur-occidental; Antipathes fernandezi, primer registro en el Océano Atlántico) se comparan a sus redescripciones más recientes y se agregan nuevos datos sobre la distribución de tamaño de sus caracteres taxonómicos.
