'''Flustrina''' is a suborder under the order Cheilostomatida of gymnolaematan Bryozoa (sea mats).

== Description == The structure of the individual zooids is generally simple, a box-like chamber of calcium carbonate, the polypides reaching out through an uncalcified flexible frontal wall, often surrounded by numerous spines. Like in other gymnolaematans, their lophophore is protruded by muscles that pull on the frontal wall of the zooid.

==Taxonomy and systematics== In some treatments, the Flustrina are restricted to the superfamilies Calloporoidea and Flustroidea and ranked as infraorder alongside the '''Cellulariomorpha''' which contain three other superfamilies.<ref>BryoZone (2004): [http://www.bryozone.com/taxahierarchy.php Taxa Hierarchy]</ref>

The obsolete suborder Anasca previously included the members of this suborder before being deprecated.<ref>{{Cite web |title=WoRMS - World Register of Marine Species - Anasca |url=http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=153670 |access-date=2017-03-10 |website=www.marinespecies.org}}</ref>
