Thysanozoon
cf. brocchii (Risso,
1818) ID from Reef
and Shore Fauna of Hawaii, Section 2, p. 49. The species account
reads: "A Thysanozoon (Plate 2.I.5b) anatomically similar
to Thysanozoon brocchii described by Risso (1818) and, perhaps,
corresponding to this species as identified by Plehn (1899) from Laysan
Island has been observed in the Hawaiian littoral zone...." Note: Newman
& Cannon include a mottled brown papillate worm from the Mediterranean
on their CD that they also call "Thysanozoon cf. brocchii."
They add "Many species have been placed in Thysanozoon brocchii;
the species is in need of review." |
