Seven myzostomidan species of the genus Myzostoma F.S. Leuckart, 1836, were observed alive in association with comatulid crinoids collected in the territorial waters of Singapore. An eighth species from Singapore was found in a museum collection. All eight species are described and most are illustrated by color photographs from life and by scanning electron micrographs. Three of the species are new to science: M. jaegersteni, M. capitocutis and M. singaporense; M. brachiatum Graff, 1877, is recorded for the second time and a lectotype is designated for it. Other new Indo-West Pacific distribution records of four of the eight species are listed.
