A Taxonomic Appraisal of the two species of Stygiomedusa [Coelenterata, Scyphozoa], with the First Southern Ocean Records
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 May 2009
Extract
Three specimens of Stygiomedusa fabulosa Russell, 1959, identified recently in the collections of the Zoology Department of the British Museum (Natural History) (Table 1) extend the recorded distribution of this infrequently collected genus to the Southern Ocean, and provide the opportunity of assessing the specific distinctness of S. stauchi Repelin, 1967. The specimens are the first of either species recorded from south of the tropics.
