Summary:Halecium banzare Watson, 2008 (Fig. 15 A–B) Halecium banzare — Peña Cantero, 2014b: 249 –251, fig. 3A–D (synonymy). Material examined. Stn 8, stem 60 mm high (MNCN 2.03/646); Stn 53, strongly polysiphonic stem 90 mm high (NIWA 117591); Stn 139, two colonies 60 and 70 mm high, with male gonothecae, on pebbles and calcareous bryozoans (NIWA 117592); Stn 171, distal stem fragment 12 mm long (MNCN 2.03/647). Description. Stem robust, strongly polysiphonic, up to 90 mm high. Branching regular, with alternate, paired branches every third hydrotheca. Stem and branches divided into internodes by alternately arranged oblique nodes. Hydrophore long, free, with distal hydrotheca (Fig. 15 A) (ratio adcauline length of hydrophore:diameter at diaphragm 1.4–1.5), bent adcaudally, resting close to internode, forming basal convexity at abcauline side. Hydrothecae widely surpassing distal node of internode. Cauline hydrothecae with pseudodiaphragm. Hydrothecal diameter distinctly increasing from diaphragm upwards, with ... : Published as part of ÁLVARO L.
