Most preserved specimens with oral disc relaxed exhibiting visible tentacles (fig. 6B–D). Pedal disc flat, circular, adherent, diameter 1.5–5.5 mm in diameter in preserved specimens (fig. 6A–C). Column cylindrical, smooth, divided into long scapus and short capitulum (fig. 6A–C). Capitulum usually not distinct in fully extended live specimens (fig. 6A) and well- relaxed preserved ones (fig. 6C) or retracted into scapus in contracted preserved ones (fig. 6B); margin of capitulum tentaculate. Scapus with inconspicuous cinclides not positioned on top of raised projections (fig. 6A–C); cinclides arranged in 12 longitudinal rows with 2–4 cinclides per row distributed on proximal to distal scapus but more conspicuous in proximal half of scapus in live (fig. 6A) and preserved specimens (fig. 6C). Column olive green with mesenterial insertions visible as beige lines on column from limbus to distal scapus (fig. 6A–C). Column diameter 2.0–7.0 mm and length 1.0–11.0 mm in preserved specimens. Oral disc circular, small, as wide or slightly wider than column, olive green becoming lighter close to base of inner tentacles with large orange, central mouth exhibiting 12 distinct lobes in live specimens (fig. 6D). Oral disc diameter 1.0– 4.5 mm in preserved specimens (fig. 6E). Tentacles 89–92, smooth, long, slender and pointed, arranged in five cycles (6+6+12+24+ n) in outer half of oral disc in both live (fig. 6D) and preserved specimens (fig. 6E). Tentacles of first and second cycles olive green somewhat darker than the light green or yellow tentacles in outer cycles (fig. 6A, D); tentacles with no markings in live specimens (fig. 6D). All tentacles translucent beige in preserved specimens (fig. 6B, C, E). Inner tentacles longer than outer ones in both live (fig. 6A, D) and preserved specimens (fig. 6B, C, E); longest tentacle up to 3 mm in live and preserved specimens. Fighting tentacles large, with blunt tip and broad base, exhibiting different color from feeding tentacles, observed in three preserved specimens (fig. 6E). Six fighting tentacles of first cycle observed in two specimens; six tentacles of first cycle and one of second cycle observed in one specimen (fig. 6E).

A few specimens exhibited irregularities in the distribution of mesenteries but only proximally (fig. 8F, G). More mesenteries distally than proximally (fig. 8G). All mesenteries of first and second cycles, including directives, fertile and with filaments (figs. 7A, 8F); those of third cycle sterile and without filaments (figs. 7F, 8F).

Acontia contain two types of nematocysts: basitrichs and p -mastigophores B2a. See figure 9 and table 2 for size and distribution.</p><p>DISTRIBUTION AND NATURAL HISTORY: Specimens were collected attached to a rope tied to a dock in the channel that connects Lagoa da Conceição to Praia da Barra da Lagoa (closer to the latter). Individuals formed large aggregations with specimens of variable sizes.</p><p>ETYMOLOGY: The species epithet refers to the popular name of inhabitants of the type locality of the species, Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil (i.e., manezinhos da ilha) .</p><p>MOLECULAR PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS: Similar sequence lengths were obtained for all Diadumene specimens studied: approximately 600 bp were sequenced for 12S, 400 bp were sequenced for 16S mitochondrial rDNA, while approximately 1500 bp were obtained for 18S nuclear rDNA. The phylogenetic relationships recovered are depicted in figure 10: within Metridioidea, clade Metridina of Rodríguez et al. (2012) was recovered with high support (99%), and included a well-supported monophyletic Diadumenidae (100%) sister to a clade containing members of Metridiidae and Acricoactinidae Larson, 2016 . The genus Diadumene was recovered as monophyletic with high support (100%) and was composed of two major clades: one formed by the two specimens of D. leucolena (from the coasts of Brazil and the United States) found as sister taxa to D. manezinha with high support (100%), and the second formed by the remaining species of Diadumene included in this study ( D. cincta, D. paranaensis, Diadumene sp., and D. lineata).</p><p>MICRO-CT SCANNING: Different tissue types were successfully stained with osmium tetroxide and micro-CT scanning resulted in high-contrast images consistent between the two species of Diadumene examined (figs. 4, 8). Fine details of external and internal anatomical characters traditionally used in the taxonomy of sea anemones were readily observed in the 2D micro-CT images and 3D volumetric renderings of each species.</p><p>2D MICRO-CT RECONSTRUCTIONS: Most external anatomical features were easily identified in the 2D micro-CT images: pedal disc morphology (figs. 4B, 8B), column morphology and its division into scapus and capitulum (figs. 4B, 8B, C), columnar specializations (i.e., cinclides, 3D MICRO-CT RECONSTRUCTIONS: All external features observed in the 2D micro-CT scans were also seen in the computer-aided 3D reconstructions for Diadumene leucolena and D. manezinha (figs. 4A, 8A). Column morphology and its division into scapus and capitulum was accurately visualized only for D. leucolena (fig. 4A), due to the degree of contraction seen in the specimen of D. manezinha scanned (fig. 8A). Likewise, while the morphology, number, and arrangement of feeding tentacles and fighting tentacles in D. manezinha (fig. 8A, D), and feeding tentacles of D. leucolena was easily observed in the 3D reconstruction (fig. 4A), the tentacles of D. leucolena displayed lower resolution in certain regions corresponding to areas where 2D micro-CT images exhibited low contrast (fig. 4F). Similarly, all internal characters observed in the micro-CT images were observed in the 3D reconstructions and certain characters were especially prominent as a result of the tridimensionality from the 3D reconstructions: mesentery growth pattern (fig. 8I), number of mesenteries distally and proximally (figs. 4G–I, 8E–G), distribution of filaments (figs. 4H, 8F), and gametogenic tissue (fig. 8F). In addition, establishment of characters such as position of cinclides (e.g., endocoels of first and second cycles in D.</p><p>FIG. 9. Cnidom of Diadumene manezinha, sp. nov.

Scale bar: 15 µm.</p><p>leucolena) was considerably facilitated by the use of virtual sections from 3D volumetric renderings (fig. 4A–E).</p><p>ARTIFACTS: Artifacts did not affect the accuracy of micro-CT images, posterior 3D representation, or establishment of characters for the two species examined. Among the artifacts, we observed low contrast of micro-CT images of the gastrovascular cavity core in the specimen of Diadumene manezinha compared with more peripheral areas (fig. 8B, E, F). Similarly, micro- CT images of the distal part of the column corresponding to the capitulum of D. manezinha suggested imperfect penetration of the stain in this specimen (fig. 8E). Probably resulting from imperfect penetration of the stain, air pockets inside the gastrovascular cavity of D. leucolena were seen as black voids in the micro-CT images (fig. 8B). Air pockets, however, were small and did not affect the morphology of internal features or compromise the recognition or orientation of surrounding anatomical characters. A more pervasive artifact related to air pockets caused a greater technical problem for the method: movement of the specimen during scanning. Air pockets created inside the specimen before scanning may result in slight movements if the specimen is not securely positioned, leading to blurry images and posterior problems in the alignment of multiple scans (results not shown).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F2F00B4E616C397DD3FCECA5E7902F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
