Additional syntypes of Flabelligera lingulata (BMNH- 1907.5.1.21), damaged, same data (2 anterior and 3 median fragments, in poor shape; largest measured). Three syntypes of Siphonostoma antarcticum (BMNH- 57.1.17.3), off Auckland (?), New Zealand (no further data), A. Sinclair, coll. (body dark or blackish, with a very thick whitish tunic).
