Description
Summary:Henricia leviuscula (Stimpson 1857) Figs. 2 A–E, 3 A, 4 A, 5 A, 5 C, 5 E Type: USNM 0 3357 (holotype) Type Locality: Puget Sound, Washington, USA Linckia leviuscula Stimpson, 1857: 529. ? Cribrella leviuscula (Stimpson), Cribrella laeviuscula (Stimpson), or Henricia leviuscula (Stimpson): Numerous authors reviewed by Fisher, 1911 and by A. Clark, 1996. Henricia leviuscula (Stimpson 1857): in part Fisher, 1910: 570; in part Verrill, 1914: 215; in part Djakonov 1961: 23, Pl. II, fig 9; in part Lambert, 1981: 100 –103; 2000: 104–106. Henricia leviuscula “var. A after Fisher”: Djakonov 1950: 95, f. 79, 80 Henricia leviuscula var. B: in part Fisher 1911: 280 –291, pl. 70, f. 2, pl. 111, f. 6 Henricia leviuscula var. leviuscula: in part Verrill 1914: 217, pl. XII–f. 5, pl. XIII, f. 1–2. Henricia leviuscula var. lunula: in part Verrill 1914: 219 Type material examined: A specimen (Fig. 2 A–E) originally labeled only “ Henricia leviuscula, Id. W.K. Fisher, Ft. Steilacoom [near Tacoma, Pierce Co., Washington; 47 ° 10.80 ΄N 122 ° 35.42 ΄W], Pudget [sic] Sound, Dr. Geo. Suckley Col.” matched Stimpson’s brief published locality: “Found in Puget Sound, by Dr. Suckley.” Our analysis revealed this specimen to be the likely holotype and it has since been labeled as such in the USNM collection. Other material examined: more than 40 specimens in our collections from the San Juan Archipelago, including USNM 1116587 (Figs. 3 A, 4 A, 5 C, 5 E), Cattle Pt., San Juan Id., San Juan Co., Washington, intertidal, and MFS 149 (Fig. 5 A), and two from Lovit Island, British Columbia. Museum specimens identified included: USNM 5991 (Baranoff Id., Alaska, 18m); USNM 3386 and 9225 (Puget Sound); USNM E 4679 (“probably Alaska”); USNM E 8678 (Departure Bay, British Columbia); USNM E 3780 (Mouth of Strait of Juan de Fuca, 73 m); USNM E 3820 (Port Townsend, Washington, 27–48 m); CASIZ 0 0 8559 (1 of 9 previously designated as vouchers for Henricia leviuscula by Fisher (1911: 281–282, 285)); CASIZ 112955 (Anchor Pt., Kenai Peninsula, Alaska); CASIZ ...
