Summary:Sertularella robustissima Galea, Häussermann & Försterra, sp. nov. Fig. 16 A-D Sertularella argentinica. – Galea, 2007: 59, fig. 14A-C. – Galea et al., 2007c: 312, fig. 3I [non Sertularella argentinica El Beshbeeshy, 2011 = Sertularella clausa (Allman, 1888)]. Holotype material: MHNG-INVE-53268; Chile, Región de Aysén, Guaitecas Archipelago, NW of Melinka, -43.88333° -73.71667°, 10-15 m, coll. HSFS, HF1; 08.03.2005; a 8 cm high, sterile colony. Additional material: HRG-0611; Chile, Región de Magallanes y de la Antártica Chilena, Canal Copihue, -50.33979° -75.37834°, 16 m, coll. HSFS, HF16, lot #084; 16.04.2013; a 8 cm high, sterile colony. Diagnosis: Colonies bonsai-like, with strongly fascicled stems and dark brown perisarc; internodes slightly demarcated, short, almost collinear; hydrothecae short, tubular, curved outwards, marginal cusps separated by large, shallow embayments. Etymology: A superlative of the Latin rōbustus, -a, -um, with reference to the sturdiness of the stems of this species. ... : Published as part of Horia R.
