Description
Summary:Laetmogone wyvillethomsoni Théel, 1879 Remarks. O’Loughlin et al. (1994) recognized morphological variations from the type specimens of Laetmogone wyvillethomsoni Théel, 1879 (southern Indo-Pacific, abyssal) in specimens from Prydz Bay (bathyal). Molecular phylogenetic data (Gustav Paulay, pers. comm.) for specimens of the morpho-species L. wyvillethomsoni from the Ross Sea indicate possible allopatric cryptic Antarctic species (shallow and deep bathyal). Whether these forms are conspecific with Laetmogone wyvillethomsoni remains to be determined. ... : Published as part of O'Loughlin, Mark, 2009, BANZARE holothuroids (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea), pp. 1-18 in Zootaxa 2196 on page 16, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.189493 ...
