3.2 | Paralaxus species from Australia and Hawaii

GenBank entries for 18S rRNA and COI sequences see Table S 1.

Representatives of two additional species, Paralaxus sp. “heron 1” and P. sp. “oahu 1” have been found off Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia and Oahu, Hawaii Islands. Due to the lack of properly preserved material, a formal description is currently not possible. Morphological details and measurements taken from microphotographs of live animals prior to fixation are presented in the Supplementary Information (Table S2).

Detailed Paralaxus species descriptions are presented in the Supplementary Information (Supplementary Results and Figs. S1-S8).
