Notes: ZSM 20040168 , 20041746, 20041747, 20060408, 20060409 also represents type material of the gorgonarian Anthoplexaura dimorpha Kükenthal, 1909 . There are more samples from the Doflein expedition that contain this species and it is very difficult to decide which ones represent type material. This is mainly because the Doflein numbers are conserved in few cases only. In the present listing those were chosen that match the collection data given by Stechow (1909). A redescription partly based on type material is given in Stechow (1913c, p. 48-49, fig. 4) .
