Search teams have found four more bodies in the wreck of the cruise ship Costa Concordia which capsized on 13 January, Italian media report.
The body of a girl of five is among those believed to have been found.
Officials say 32 people died in the disaster but only 17 bodies had been retrieved before the new announcement.
An official on the island of Giglio where the ship ran aground confirmed media reports that bodies had been found but could not say how many.
The bodies were located in the submerged part of the wreck. One of them was said to be Dayana Arlotti, from Rimini, who had been on the ship with her father.
Francesca Maffini told AFP news agency that an operation to recover the bodies was under way.
"The bodies are in a state of decomposition after all this time in the water," she said.
