Description
Symplectoscyphus paulensis Stechow, 1923
(Fig. 11i)
Material examined. ANT XXI/2: PS65/259, few stems, c. 10 mm high; PS65/276, few stems, c. 15 mm high.
Ecology and distribution. Species reported in Antarctic waters in only one occasion at a depth of 603 m in the Bellingshausen Sea, although it is widely distributed in the Southern Hemisphere (Peña Cantero 2012 and literature therein); material examined was collected at depths from 268 to 333 m. This finding constitutes the second report of the species in Antarctic waters and the first evidence for the Weddell Sea.
