Type material The five syntypes of V. chuni are in the ZMB (209190). Behning and Woltereck (1912) do not specify a holotype. They record four specimens from the mid­Atlantic, from Valdivia Stns 46 (1º27.8’N, 10º16.5’W) and 49 (0º20’N, 6º45’W). The figured female is from Stn. 46. Type material of synonyms The type of V. hodgsoni is in the BMNH (1914.2.25.117). It is clearly the same as V. chuni. Stewart (1913) had most likely written her paper before the publication of Behning and Woltereck (1912) became available and thus was unaware that her species had already been described. Material examined (137 specimens) Types. Five syntypes of V. chuni from Valdivia Stns. 46 and 49: all in spirit; one intact female and three other specimens, one with A1 missing and one with the Us missing, from Stn. 49 and one female, dissected on the left with Us missing, from Stn. 46. Holotype of V. hodgsoni, male(?), approximately 6 mm, from near Cape of Good Hope, 36º03’S, 12º50’E, Discovery, 1 st October, 1901: microscope slide of G1 & 2 and P7, remainder in spirit. Other material examined. Tasman Sea: 1 lot (AM), 1 specimen. North Atlantic: 1 lot ...
