Summary: | Oligobregma pseudocollare sp. nov. (Fig. 2 A–E) Holotype. Scotia Sea northeast off Elephant Island, Sta. 46 7, 30 January 2002, 60° 38.35 ’S, 53 ° 57.36 ’W, 2889–2892 m, EBS (ZMH, P 24733) Paratypes. Scotia Sea northeast off Elephant Island, Sta. 46 7, 30 January 2002, 60° 38.35 ’S, 53 ° 57.36 ’W, 2889–2892 m, EBS, 19 specimens (ZMH, P 24734); Scotia Sea, South Sandwich Islands, east off Montagu Island, Sta. 143 1, 25 March 2002, 58° 44.69 ’S, 25 ° 10.27 ’W, 753–774 m, EBS, 8 specimens (NHM 2006.1691 – 1698); Weddell Sea, Antarctic Peninsula, Sta. 131 3, 0 5 March 2002, 65° 19.83 ’S, 51 ° 31.62 ’W, 3049–3050 m, EBS, 1 specimen (ZMH, P 24735). Etymology. The name refers to the strong resemblance of the species to Oligobregma collare (Levenstein, 1975). Diagnosis. This species can be distinguished by the presence of two rows of acicular spines in the first and second notopodia. Description Holotype incomplete, posterior segments in poor condition, pygidium missing; 6.5 mm long and 1.3 mm Prostomium with 2 rounded lobes projecting from anterolateral margin; no eyes; nuchal organs not apparent. Peristomium well developed, forming 1–2 achaetous rings lateral to prostomium; proboscis smooth and saclike (Fig. 2 B). Chaetigers 1–3 smooth, following segments becoming rugose; anterior chaetigers tri to quadriannulated, 5 annulations present from chaetiger 10 (Fig. 2 A). Anterior parapodia reduced to simple lobes; medial and posterior parapodial lobes becoming more distinct, conical, with short conical dorsal and ventral cirri (Fig. 2 C); interramal sense organs apparent between posterior noto and neuropodia. Chaetigers 1 and 2 with strong, sickleshaped acicular spines in notopodia in addition to capillaries; spines arranged in 2 rows, surface smooth (Fig. 2 A, D); all noto and neuropodia with capillaries; short furcate chaetae present in both rami from chaetiger 3, covered by fine hairs; tynes unequal in length, short tyne about half of long one (Fig. 2 E). Pygidium terminal; unknown for adult types; juvenile ... |
