Nemertesia valdiviae Stechow, 1919

Stechow (1919b), Sitz. Ber. Ges. Morphol. Physiol. München. 1919: 33-34.

ZSM 20040236 colony in ethanol, ZSM 20051284, 20051285, 20051288-20051290 micro slides with colony portions, Cape Verde Islands, west of Boavista, 16°17'N, 22°51'W, depth 77 m, leg. “Valdivia”, station 38, 29.VIII.1898.

Notes: Stechow (1921b, p. 232-233, 1925a, p. 503-505, fig. 46) provided two redescriptions based on the type material. In the latter he states (p. 505) that he now tends to include the species in the genus Plumularia instead of Nemertesia . The labelling on the micro slides shows this changed opinion.
