Material examined. Stn. T10, 15.ii.2005: numerous hydrothecae on Halecium cf. beanii (Johnston, 1838), no coppinia. Stn. I10, 28.xi.2007: numerous hydrothecae on algae, no coppinia.
Remarks. The present material is unidentifiable in the absence of coppinia. The hydrothecae from Stn. T10 are slightly smaller than those from Stn. I10 (150–165 µm vs. 160–190 µm wide at aperture), though both are provided with striae on the upper surface of the adnate part of the hydrotheca. They could therefore belong to two different species.

Material examined. Stn. I10, 28.xi.2007: several sterile stems off barnacles.
Description. A small colony composed of minute (165–410 µm high), unbranched stems annulated throughout; hydrotheca 25–30 µm deep, diameter 115–125 µm at aperture, 60–70 µm at base; margin flaring and much everted; 1–4 renovations occasionally present. Gonothecae not found.
Remarks. This species is unidentifiable in the absence of (female) gonothecae. It resembles H. diminutivum Fraser, 1940 and the small, unbranched stems of both H. corrugatum Nutting, 1899, and specimens likely incorrectly assigned to H. annulatum Torrey, 1902 by Jäderholm (1920)1.

Thoa beanii Johnston, 1838: 120, pl. 7 figs 1–2.
Halecium beanii – Schuchert, 2005: 615, figs 5 –6.
Material examined. Stn. T10, 15.ii.2005: one sterile colony, 5.5 cm high, with polysiphonic stem (NHM 2009.17).
Remarks. The examined specimen is provisionally assigned to Johnston’s (1838) species on the account of its polysiphonic, irregularly branched stem. However, additional fertile female specimens are necessary to validate the present identification.
Millard (1975) observed both H. beanii and H. halecinum (Linnaeus, 1758) in South Africa, the closest location to Tristan da Cunha. She also warned about the impossibility of proper identification of these species in the absence of female gonothecae. On the other hand, Cornelius (1995a) showed that Linnaeus’ (1758) species always forms regularly pinnate colonies, while the stems of H. beanii are “imperfectly pinnate, shrubby, varied in appearance”, a conclusion partly shared by Schuchert (2005), who showed several exceptions.
Although Millard (1975) did not discuss any morphological peculiarities in the female gonothecae of H. beanii from South Africa, Schuchert (2005) showed several important differences (polygonal cross-section, 1. Torrey’s (1902) species has sessile primary hydrothecae, not terminal on branches, as illustrated by Jäderholm (1920).
increased number of eggs), rendering it distinct from the European population.
Distribution. Cosmopolitan, penetrating well into the Arctic Ocean and the coasts of Patagonia, but not into the Antarctic (Medel & Vervoort 2000). This is the first record of this species for Tristan da Cunha.

Material examined. Stn. T17, 06.iii.2005: two sterile stems arising from the same stolon, 3 and 8 mm high, respectively.
Description. Small colony composed of two monosiphonic, unbranched stems, arising from the same stolon. Stems geniculate, divided into long internodes by oblique nodes sloping alternately in opposite directions. Each internode with well-developed distal hydrophore, pointing upwards and surpassing level of node. Hydrothecae moderately deep, pseudodiaphragm present, margin flaring, everted, renovations common. Gonothecae absent.
Remarks. Although devoid of the characteristic female gonothecae, the present specimen fits the accepted concept of H. delicatulum, due to the geniculate appearance of stem, the morphology of internodes, hydrophores and hydrothecae, and the presence of a pseudodiaphragm. See also discussion under the next hydroid.
Distribution. Reportedly circumglobal in tropical, subtropical and boreal waters (Peña Cantero 2006). This is the first record of this species for Tristan da Cunha.

description: Crux Trewick gen. nov.
Diagnosis. A medium sized, medium to dark brown tokoriro with stout body and relatively short, stout legs. In general proportions most reminiscent among New Zealand Rhaphidophoridae, of Talitrsopis sedilloti Bolivar, 1882. Fore femora lack apical spines, mid femora bear a single articulated retrolateral apical spine, and hind femora have at least one small, stout fixed spine towards the distal end of prolateral inferior carina and one or more slightly larger similar spines on the retrolateral inferior carina. Fore and mid tibiae each with four articulated apical spines, one articulated retrolateral, inferior, linear spine and two articulated prolateral, inferior linear spines; all narrow and sharp. Hind tibiae well-armed on posterior surface with two rows of about nine dark, stout, fixed spines (Figure 3, 4).
Etymology. A genus first detected in the deep south, named for the well-recognised constellation of the southern sky, the Southern Cross or Crux. Rakiura-Stewart Island, the type location is the southern-most of the main islands of Aoteatora New Zealand.

Diagnosis: This species was described by Hancock and Drew (1995) except for male and female postabdominal structures. Epandrium sclerotised with broad lateral surstylus, with no demarcation between them, proctiger as high as epandrium, cylindrical with three strong setae, phallus short (1.61 mm) with heavily sclerotised hood-shaped glans (1.02 mm). Oviscape dark brown to black, eversible membrane short (0.84 mm) with spicules on distal and proximal end with 3–4 projections, aculeus (0.95 mm) with a blunt aculeus tip, two prominent preapical setae; spermathecae black and bulbous.
Biology: Reared from internodal spaces of shoots of the bamboos Gigantochloa and Cephalostachyum in Malaysia and Thailand, the larvae entering the internodes of older bamboo shoots through holes made by larvae of Lasiochila Weise beetles (Chrysomelidae: Hispinae), living semi-aquatically in the water body of the internodal cavity and feeding on detritus or microbial growth (Dohm et al. 2008).

Material examined. Stn. I10, 28.xi.2007: numerous sterile stems, up to 9 mm high, on sponge (NHM 2009.24).
Remarks. The ahydrothecate segments in the present material are short and carry generally a single nematotheca, more rarely two. Following Millard (1977b), their length may vary considerably in correlation with the number of nematothecae they bear. Ritchie (1909) described 2–4 nematothecae in his type material, 3 being the most frequent number, while 1–4 are generally found upon inspection of numerous samples (Schuchert 1997).
The first pair of lateral nematothecae reaches slightly beyond the hydrothecal margin; the upper chamber is shallow, ca. 3–4 times shorter than the basal one; its adaxial wall is lowered, without cusp.
An important variation in the number and shape of the lateral nematothecae, as well as in the structure of the gonothecae was reported by Schuchert (1997), who did not exclude the involvement of a complex of species.
Distribution. The type material of this species was trawled (depth 183 m) by the S.Y. Scotia at Gough Island (Ritchie 1909). Additional records are from the tropical West Africa, Vema Seamount, South Africa, India, New Zealand, Japan, and Korea (Vervoort & Watson 2003).

Hymenodoridae LSIDurn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 1BC06DC5- E4C5-40A9-B593-66BF2F77F6CE
Diagnosis (Fig. 7A–E): rostrum dorsally dentate and ventrally unarmed; second maxilla with elongate proximal endite lacking submarginal papilla and lamina; first maxilliped with two-segmented endopod at least two times as long as distal endite; second maxilliped with distal segment suboval (Hymenodora) or subtriangular (Sclerodora) and attached almost transversely to preceding joint.
Type genus: Hymenodora Sars, 1877. Genera included: Hymenodora Sars, 1877, Sclerodora Vereshchaka, Kulagin & Lunina, 2021.
Remarks: Chace (1986) wrote that mandibles are dissimilar (molar process ‘compressed and sub-bilinear on left’; Chace 1986: 6) in Acanthephyra, Ephyrina, Heterogenys, Hymenodora, Kemphyra, Meningodora and Notostomus, i.e. in Acanthephyridae and Hymenodoridae; in Janicella, Oplophorus and Systellaspis, mandibles are similar. The shape of the mandibles would be a strong diagnostic character but, after examination of these structures (Fig. 7A, F, K), we could not find any objective difference that could definitely be codified. The figures of mandibles in the paper by Chace (1986) also do not show visible variations in the shape of the left molar process. We, therefore, do not include structure of the mandibles in the family diagnoses.
Overall, all three families of Oplophoroidea show a great variability of external characters including the rostrum, carapace, abdomen and pereopods. Diagnostic characters that are invariable within families are, therefore, few and linked only to mouthparts, on which we base the key below.

Distribution and habitat. – Amyrea humbertii is widespread in Madagascar, from low to mid elevations in the eastern evergreen forests as well as from scattered localities in the central highlands and the western dry forests around Bemaraha.
Observations. – The diagnosis of A. celastroides states that it contrasts with A. humbertii in that it has wider leaves that are entire and thinly coriaceous, with thicker veins, as well as having longer inflorescences and smaller staminate disk glands. The holotype of A. celastroides does exhibit leaves in the stated 3-5 cm range, but in the lectotype of A. humbertii the leaves are up to 4.8 cm wide, and thus not significantly different. The leaf margins of this lectotype appear to be as near to entire as do those of Miller 3773, although specimens of A. humbertii often do have evident marginal teeth. The thickness of the leaf venation of the two specimens does not appear to differ. Inflorescence lengths in specimens not otherwise distinguishable from A. humbertii sometimes attain 9 cm, the maximum attributed to A. celastroides, and no difference in staminate disk gland size was observed in the 4 staminate flowering specimens examined.
In its diagnosis A. stenocarpa is distinguished from A. celastroides (placed above in the synonymy of A. humbertii) by its narrow fruit, 12 × 7 mm. The isotype at MO bears fruits that measure 8-11 × 6-7 mm and are almost certainly immature, with longitudinally collapsed walls and locule apices that project above the central axis of the fruit. The immature fruits of A. humbertii sometimes show the same longitudinally collapsed walls and extended locule apices, and its mature fruits measure c. 11 × 11 mm. Given that Service Forestier 2531 is not otherwise distinct from A. humbertii, which is common in the forests near Perinet, I have no doubt that this type specimen represents A. humbertii.

Distribution and habitat. – Cleistanthus occidentalis is distributed in the western dry forests from Bemaraha to Boina.
Observations. – The type specimen of the new synonym is in fruit and bears infructescences from which the capsules have fallen, leaving remnants of the calyx and disk as well as the columns of the fallen fruit. On the MO isotype, several of these columns clearly display pairs of scars where two ovules were originally attached within each locule; the specimen thus represents a species belonging to either the Phyllanthaceae or the Picrodendraceae sensu APGIII (2009), rather than the Euphorbiaceae (where Amyrea is placed). The apparently fasciculate inflorescence type, the pubescent disk, and the stout column suggest Cleistanthus, and in fact this type specimen matches the rarely-collected C. occidentalis, known only from the region in which the specimen was found. It appears to be the first fruiting collection of that species.

Material examined. 1M and 3F, from one station (Fig. 1). TALUD III. St. 19 (25°12’00”N, 109°07’00”W), August 20, 1991, 1M, 3F, I-K, surface to 410 m (TD 920 m) (ICML-EMU-12761).
Distribution. Circumtropical. In the eastern Pacific it is known from the Gulf of California and off the W coast of the Baja California Peninsula (Brusca & Hendrickx 2005; Lavaniegos & Hereu 2009; Lavaniegos 2014, 2017), and from off the coasts of Jalisco and Colima, from Punta Farallón, Jalisco (19°19’77”N, 105°00’28”W), to Cuyutlán, Colima (18°58’24”N, 104°13’51”W), in the Mexican Pacific (Gasca et al. 2012).
Remarks. In the Gulf of California, E. armata is known from Isla Angel de la Guarda, in the northern Gulf of California, to off Cabo San Lucas, SW Gulf of California, Mexico (Siegel-Causey 1982; Brusca & Hendrickx 2005; García-Madrigal 2007), but it was found in a single station during our survey (Fig. 1), still within its wide known distributional range in the eastern Pacific. Eupronoe armata is very similar to E. intermedia Stebbing, 1888, but Tashiro (1978) demonstrated that it is a valid species. Eupronoe intermedia features a pointed head, particularly in males, ending in a distinctive beak; the pereopod 7 has an oval-shaped terminal article while in E. armata it is round, as long as wide. Total length of adult specimens is 7‒8 mm.
