Summary:Crucella scotiae (Vaney) syn. nov., comb. nov. Table 1. Thyone scotiae Vaney, 1906a: 400 -401, fig. 1.— Ekman 1925: 106 –108, fig. 24.

Crucella cf. hystrix Gutt, 1990.— O’Loughlin et al., 1994: 552, table 2. Remarks. Thyone scotiae Vaney, 1906 a has a circum-polar distribution (M. O’Loughlin, pers. obs.). The distinguishing characters of Thyone scotiae Vaney, 1906 a and Caespitugo citriformis Gutt, 1990 are: body with narrowed tail; hard to parchment-like body wall; 10 tentacles with ventral pair small; cucumariid not phyllophorid calcareous ring; tube feet evenly distributed around body; body wall ossicles small knobbed plates, large irregular thick knobbed perforated plates with central secondary mesh thickening; posterior body with multi-layered ossicles. Caespitugo citriformis Gutt, 1990 is judged here to be a junior synonym of Thyone scotiae ... : Published as part of O'Loughlin, Mark, Manjón-Cabeza, Eugenia & Ruiz, Francina Moya, 2009, Antarctic holothuroids from the Bellingshausen Sea, with descriptions of new species (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea), pp. 1-16 in Zootaxa 2016 on page 10, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.185959 ...
