Summary: | HIPPASTERIA MAMMIFERA DJAKONOV, 1950 Djakonov, 1950: 54 (1968: 45), 1952: 409. Occurrence: Okhotsk Sea. 97 m. Comments: This species was described by Djakonov (1950) as a separate species based on extremely swollen and hemispherical marginal and abactinal plates. This character is plesiomorphic to H. spinosa (and to a certain extent, H. phrygiana ), which undermines the distinctiveness of this species and further lends support to its synonymy with H. spinosa . Material examined: None. Published as part of Mah, Christopher, Nizinski, Martha & Lundsten, Lonny, 2010, Phylogenetic revision of the Hippasterinae (Goniasteridae; Asteroidea): systematics of deep sea corallivores, including one new genus and three new species, pp. 266-301 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 160 (2) on page 286, DOI:10.1111/j.1096-3642.2010.00638.x, http://zenodo.org/record/10114738 |
