The holotype of S. verrucosus is deposited at the ZMB (# 1764). Type Locality: 35 °02’S, 175 ° 40 ’E (off northern North Island, New Zealand), 1092 m. The holotype of C. pauciseptata (female colony) is deposited at the BM (2012.1). Type Locality: 42 °03.9’S, 00°03.5’E (Discovery Seamount), 472 m. Material Examined. MN SM129, 1 female colony, SAM; Valdivia 103, 1 colony, ZMB Cni 14537; holotypes of S. verrucosus and C. pauciseptata . Remarks. Since so few specimens are reported herein, and this species is well described and illustrated elsewhere (see synonymy), a redescription is not provided. In brief, the specimen from MN SM 129 is a female colony 24 mm in height, 21 mm in width, and 5.1 mm in basal branch diameter (Fig. 3 D). Even at this stage the commensal polychaete tube is well developed. Cyclosystems are arranged sympodially, and are about 1.4 mm in diameter. Based on 8 cyclosystems there is a range of 3–11 dactylopores per cyclosystem, and an average of 7.12. Adcauline diastemas are common, especially in cyclosystems near the colony base. The colony has one female ampulla, with an efferent pore that opens into the adjacent gastropore chamber. The type of C. pauciseptata is identical to typical C. verrucosa except that it does not have a symbiosis with a commensal polynoid, which even Broch (1951 b) suggested was “fortuitous”, or somewhat unusual. Distribution. Off southeastern South Africa from off Margate (Natal) and eastern Agulhas Bank (Fig. 27), 500– 850 m.
