| Summary: | The Kampylasterinae:A new subfamily within the Asterinidae Kampylaster and Anseropoda were previously grouped together (see Spencer & Wright 1966) along with Mirastrella Fisher, 1940 within the Anseropodinae Fisher, 1906.Although a decisive placement was uncertain, A.M. Clark (1983) placed Mirastrella Fisher, 1940 with Leilaster A.H. Clark, 1938 in the Leilasteridae Jangoux & Aziz, 1988, separate from the Asterinidae. As discussed herein “ Anseropoda ” antarctica is separated from typological Anseropoda and thus, typological priority for the subfamily falls to the senior name, Kampylaster Koehler, 1920. Based on both 2-gene and 3-gene trees, Kampylaster Koehler, 1920 and “ Anseropoda ” (now Astrotholus n. gen.) antarctica were supported as constituting a monophyletic clade within a larger Asterinidae + Ganeriidae cluster (Mah & Foltz 2011b). Although the Kampylaster + “ Anseropoda ” clade was well supported (100% bootstrap) its precise relationship to other taxa was more ambiguous and was ... : Published as part of Mah, Christopher L., 2023, New Genera, Species, and observations on the biology of Antarctic Valvatida (Asteroidea), pp. 1-88 in Zootaxa 5310 (1) on pages 8-9, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5310.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/8090240 ... |
