ZSM 20051710 colony in ethanol, ZSM 20051186, micro slide with single rod, Japan, Sagami Bay, Okinose Bank, 34°59'30"N 139°34'50"E, depth 70-180 m, leg. F. Doflein expedition, “Zuso Maru”, station 7, Nr. 362, 10.XI.1904.

Notes: Together with a redescription Stechow (1909, p. 81-82) synonymized the species ( Antennularia Perrieri, Billard). Here more accurate details on the material are given, that allow identifying the type material. Later (Stechow 1913c, p. 93) he synonymized the species with Nemertesia irregularis (Quelch 1885) . All these changes can be traced by corrections on the labels carried out by Stechow. The jar of ZSM 20051710 in addition contains Antennularia antennina (L.) var. minor Kirchenpauer, which grows on the same substratum like the colony of Antennularia dendritica Stechow, 1907 .
