Description
Summary:Campanularia africana Stechow, 1923 Fig. 3G–H; Table 5 Campanularia africana Stechow, 1923: 104. Campanularia africana – Leloup 1938: 13–14, fig. 9. — Millard 1975: 204, fig. 67a. Material examined SOUTH ATLANTIC OCEAN • 2 colonies, growing on algae, without gonothecae; Vema Seamount, stn BT5; 31°37′16″–31°36′58″ S, 8°22′37″–8°23′06″ E; 71–94 m depth; 31 Jan. 2015; SEAFO-2015 leg.; SEAFO-2015-40437, SEAFO-2015-40768, LZM-UV slide R. 577. Distribution Campanularia africana has previously been reported from Australia (Watson 1990), Japan (Stechow 1923; Leloup 1938; Hirohito 1995) and Natal, South Africa (Millard 1975). Its bathymetric distribution extends from the littoral area to a depth of 102 m (Millard 1975; Stechow 1925). Our finding of C. africana at Vema Seamount represents the first record of this species for the Atlantic Ocean. : Published as part of Gil, Marta & Ramil, Fran, 2021, Hydroids (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa) from the Vema and Valdivia seamounts (SE Atlantic), pp. 49-96 in European Journal of Taxonomy 758 on page 62, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2021.758.1425, http://zenodo.org/record/5088125 : {"references": ["Stechow E. 1923.
