Summary:Staurotheca dichotoma? Allman, 1888 (*) ? Staurotheca dichotoma — Briggs, 1938: 27. Staurotheca dichotoma— Peña Cantero & Vervoort, 2003: 2681 –2683, fig. 7 (synonymy). Remarks. Record by Briggs (1938) is doubtful because he provided neither description nor measurements. This author indicated that his specimen was provided with vase-shaped female gonothecae. However, gonothecae of that shape are also found in other species of Staurotheca (e.g. Staurotheca glomulosa Peña Cantero, Svoboda & Vervoort, 1997 and S. nonscripta). Ecology and distribution. Briggs (1938) reported this species from Commonwealth Bay, at depths between 630 and 720 m. Antarctic-Kerguelen distribution (Peña Cantero & Vervoort 2003). ... : Published as part of Peña Cantero, Álvaro L. & Marzal, Marina Fresneda, 2018, Benthic hydroids (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) from off George V Coast (East Antarctica), pp. 121-136 in Zootaxa 4441 (1) on page 126, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4441.1.7, http://zenodo.org/record/1301927 ...
