1. Echinopsolus Gutt, 1990. Bohn & Hess (2014) reassigned a group of Antarctic cucumariid species to genus Echinopsolus Gutt, 1990, based on their shared and unique set of morphological characters related to their reproductive mode. The group comprised: Echinopsolus acanthocola Gutt, 1990; E. acutus (Massin, 1992); E. charcoti (Vaney, 1906); E. koehleri (Vaney, 1914); E. mollis (Ludwig & Heding, 1935); E. parvipes (Massin, 1992); E. splendidus (Gutt, 1990). In the same paper Bohn & Hess (2014) reassigned genus Echinopsolus to family Cucumariidae.

Both type specimens were collected from the same type locality, station D474. 2 The station data reported for the type for Parathyonidium incertum in Heding & Panning (1954) is station D474. We judge that this may be a mistake since it is the type locality on the labels for Clarkiella discoveryi . The holotype specimen is assumed ...
