The Validity of Anthothoe Chilensis (Actiniaria, Sagartiidae) and Its Distribution in Southern Hemisphere
. THE VALIDITY OF ANTHOTHOE CHILENSIS (ACTINIARIA, SAGARTIIDAE) AND ITS DISTRIBUTION IN SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE Adriana C. Excoffon^ Maria Júlia C. Belém^ Maurício O. Zamponi^'^ Erika Schlenz^ ABSTRACT Anthothoe chilemis (Lesson, 1830) is redescribed based on specimens collected from the intertidal of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) and Mar dei Plata (Argentina). The geographic distribution is amplified to the Southwest Atlantic Ocean. The type species of the genus, A. stimpsoni (Verrill, 1870) is considered a junior subjective synonym of A. chilensis. KEYWORDS. Sagartiidae, Anthothoe chilensis, redescription, distribution, synonymy. INTRODUCTION CARLGREN (1949) listed four species: Anthothoe stimpsoni (Verrill, 1870), A. austraUensis Carlgren, 1949, A. vagrans (Stuckey, 1909) and A. panamensis Carlgren, 1949, in the genus Anthothoe Carlgren, 1938. A. panamensis should be considered as "species inquirenda", since CARLGREN (1951: 433) identified doubtfuUy two specimens from the Gulf of California as "A. panamensis (Verrill) " CARLGREN (1950a, 1959) ixdinsíexveá Actinothoe albocincta Hutton, 1878 and Actinothoe chilensis Lesson, 1830, respectively, to the genus Anthothoe. The genus is considered as endemic to the Southern Hemisphere. 1 Laboratório de Biologia de Cnidarios. Departamento de Ciências Marinas. Faculdad de Ciências Exactas y Naturales. UNMP.

The genus Oceanactis Moseley, 1877 is considered synonymous with Oractts McMurrich, 1893 and is the only genus belonging to the family Oractiidae Riemann-ZUrneck, 2000. The invagina- "glandular tions of the oral dise or sacs", unique to the Oractiidae, are de- scribed and their possible function is discussed. Key Words: Actiniaria. Oractiidae, sea anemones, Sea of Okhotsk, taxon- omy. Introduction were Several specimens of Oceanactis diomedeae (McMurrich, 1893) found among other sea anemones collected in the Sea of Okhotsk. This species was de- scribed as Oractis diomedeae McMurrich, 1893 from several specimens collected in California (McMurrich 1893), The taxonomic status of Oractis McMurrich, 1893 was not clear for a long time: initially described as a fbrm related to Gonactinia Sars, 1851 (Gonactiniidae), it was referred to the Andresiidae by Carlgren (1931) and later to the Haloclavidae by Carlgren (1949). Stephenson (1935: 30) pointed out that Oractis is an unusual form, not fitting readily into any family. He considered "may it to be related to the Halcampoididae or it be an immature or aberrant Ilyan- thid." Recently Riemann-ZUrneck (2000) established a new family Oractiidae and described a second species belonging to this genus, Oractis bursijt?ra Riemann- ZUrneck, 20oo, based on a single specimen from the central Arctic deep sea in- (Amundsen Basin, 3ooOm). -

THE primary aim of this paper is to show tha~ among certain Actinians investigated, the species are sharply differentiated by their divers methods of reproduction; and to point out that the general question of species is one which is worthy of the attention of experimental biologists. Arguments supporting these contentions will be found in Section 7. I should like to make the following acknowledgments. I have received a grant, which has made the work described possible, from the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research. I have received interest and advice from Prof. Watson, and invaluable assistance (detailed below) from Mr. W. Edgar Evans. The whole cultural side of the work was carried out by my wife, who also provided Text-Figs. 2 and 3, and the sections from which they were drawn.

CNIDARIA Corals, Medusae, Hydroids, Myxozoans
FOUR Phylum CNIDARIA corals, medusae, hydroids, myxozoans STEPHEN D. CAIRNS, LISA-ANN GERSHWIN, FRED J. BROOK, PHILIP PUGH, ELLIOT W. Dawson, OscaR OcaÑA V., WILLEM VERvooRT, GARY WILLIAMS, JEANETTE E. Watson, DENNIS M. OPREsko, PETER SCHUCHERT, P. MICHAEL HINE, DENNIS P. GORDON, HAMISH J. CAMPBELL, ANTHONY J. WRIGHT, JUAN A. SÁNCHEZ, DAPHNE G. FAUTIN his ancient phylum of mostly marine organisms is best known for its contribution to geomorphological features, forming thousands of square Tkilometres of coral reefs in warm tropical waters. Their fossil remains contribute to some limestones. Cnidarians are also significant components of the plankton, where large medusae – popularly called jellyfish – and colonial forms like Portuguese man-of-war and stringy siphonophores prey on other organisms including small fish. Some of these species are justly feared by humans for their stings, which in some cases can be fatal. Certainly, most New Zealanders will have encountered cnidarians when rambling along beaches and fossicking in rock pools where sea anemones and diminutive bushy hydroids abound. In New Zealand’s fiords and in deeper water on seamounts, black corals and branching gorgonians can form veritable trees five metres high or more. In contrast, inland inhabitants of continental landmasses who have never, or rarely, seen an ocean or visited a seashore can hardly be impressed with the Cnidaria as a phylum – freshwater cnidarians are relatively few, restricted to tiny hydras, the branching hydroid Cordylophora, and rare medusae. Worldwide, there are about 10,000 described species, with perhaps half as many again undescribed. All cnidarians have nettle cells known as nematocysts (or cnidae – from the Greek, knide, a nettle), extraordinarily complex structures that are effectively invaginated coiled tubes within a cell. -

They are a colourful and diverse group, and we hope you enjoy using this guide to explore them further and identify them in the field. ADORABLE ANEMONES is a fully illustrated working e-guide to the most commonly encountered shallow water species of Actiniaria, Corallimorpharia, Ceriantharia and Zoantharia, the anemones of New Zealand. It is designed for New Zealanders like you who live near the sea, dive and snorkel, explore our coasts, make a living from it, and for those who educate and are charged with kaitiakitanga, conservation and management of our marine realm. It is one in a series of e-guides on New Zealand Marine invertebrates and algae that NIWA’s Coasts and Oceans group is presently developing. The e-guide starts with a simple introduction to living anemones, followed by a simple colour index, species index, detailed individual species pages, and finally, icon explanations and a glossary of terms. As new species are discovered and described, new species pages will be added and an updated version of this e-guide will be made available. Each anemone species page illustrates and describes features that will enable you to differentiate the species from each other.
