Description
Summary:Symplectoscyphus vanhoeffeni Totton, 1930 (Fig. 12 H) Symplectoscyphus vanhoeffeni Totton, 1930: 187 –188, fig. 38a–d; Peña Cantero, 2010a: 41 (synonymy); 2014a: 1725, fig. 6h; Galea & Schories, 2012: 12 –13, fig. 2X –Z. Material examined. Stn 51, fragment 11 mm long (NIWA 117584); Stn 128, mass of stems, ca. 50 mm in diameter, with gonothecae (NIWA 117585); Stn 129, fragment 5 mm long (NIWA 117586); Stn 130, a few tiny stems on Billardia subrufa (MNCN 2.03/641); Stn 132, mass of stems ca. 10 mm in diameter, with remnants of gonothecae (NIWA 117587); Stn 198, several stems up to 15 mm high on Schizotricha nana and holothurians (MNCN 2.03/642). Ecology and distribution. Shelf and slope species, found at depths from 6 (Naumov & Stepanjants 1972) to 964 m (Peña Cantero 2014a); present material collected at depths between 85 and 222 m, epibiotic on holothurians, Billardia subrufa and Schizotricha nana , and with gonothecae in February. Circum-Antarctic distribution (Peña Cantero & García Carrascosa 1995). Recently reported from off King George Island (Galea & Schories 2012), in West Antarctica, and off Queen Mary Coast (Peña Cantero 2014a), in East Antarctica. See Peña Cantero (2010a) for previous records. In the Ross Sea, already known from McMurdo Sound and off Cape Adare (Totton 1930).
