| Summary: | Nausithoe simplex (Kirkpatrick, 1890) (Fig. 15: A–B) Stephanoscyphus simplex Kirkpatrick, 1890: 14, pl. III. Stephanoscyphistoma simplex — Jarms, 1990: 11. Nausithoe simplex — Morandini & Jarms, 2012: 62–63, figs 1–4. Lectotype NHM 1878.3.26.11a. Material examined: NHM 1878.3.26.11a, b, d. Diagnosis: polyp—solitary with 1 whorl of 4 cusps. Description: Based on original description, and Morandini & Jarms (2012). Only known from the polyp stage. Polyp 4.56 mm in total length; a single series with 4 internal quadratic cusps. Type locality: S of Greenland (56°11’N 37°41’W), ~ 2650m depth. Distribution: Only known from type locality. Remarks: The precise identification of this species demands visualization of the internal cusps (shape and number). We analyzed one specimen previously identified as N. simplex (NMNH 53831— North Carolina / USA 1966), but observation of the internal cusps to confirm the identification was not possible without damaging the specimen. ... : Published as part of Molinari, Clarissa G., Collins, Allen G. & Morandini, André C., 2023, A morphological review of the jellyfish genus Nausithoe Kölliker, 1853 (Nausithoideae, Coronatae, Scyphozoa, Cnidaria), pp. 1-32 in Zootaxa 5336 (1) on page 23, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5336.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/8268440 ... |
