Medusae from McMurdo sound, Ross Sea including the descriptions of two new species, Leuckartiara brownei and Benthocodon hyalinus
Seven species of medusae were collected using scuba equipment in neritic waters of McMurdo Sound, Ross Sea, Antarctica. Two species dominated, the narcomedusa Solmundella bitentaculata and the scyphomedusa Diplulmaris antarctica. Two new taxa were found. Leuckartiara brownei n. sp., a pandeid anthom...
