| Summary: | Filellum antarcticum (Hartlaub, 1904) (Fig. 6 c–f) Material examined. ANT XV/3: 48-5, numerous hydrothecae, on S. lobata, with coppinia; ANT XVII /3: 111-9, several hydrothecae, on S. lobata, with coppinia; ANT XXI /2: PS65/276, numerous hydrothecae, on St. vanhoeffeni, with coppinia. Remarks. Cnidome comprising large microbasic mastigophores [range 10.0–12.0 x 4.0–4.5 µm, mean 10.9±0.8 x 4.1±0.2 µm (n=11)] and small microbasic euryteles [range 5.5–6.5 x 2.5–3.0 µm, mean 6.1±0.3 x 2.8±0.3 µm (n=18)]. Ecology and distribution. Species previously reported in Antarctic waters at depths from 42 (Stepanjants 1979) to 1658 m (Peña Cantero in press); present material from 62 to 277 m. Species known from all over Antarctic waters (Peña Cantero et al. 2004) and South Africa (Millard 1964, 1975). Published as part of Soto, Joan J. & Peña, Álvaro L., 2019, Benthic hydroids (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa) from the Weddell Sea (Antarctica), pp. 1-78 in Zootaxa 4570 (1) on pages 20-22, DOI:10.11646/zootaxa.4570.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/2608527 |
