Description
Stenothoe aucklandica Stephensen, 1927
(Figure 24)
Stenothoe aucklandica Stephensen 1927: 311–313, fig. 8Stenothoe aucklandica var. falklandica Schellenberg 1931: 113–114, fig. 61 J.L. Barnard 1972b: 157
Material examinedAuckland Islands, Feb. 1973 Jim Lowry coll., sandy bay (1 slide); Auckland Islands red algae on rock, 0–2 m, Feb. 1973 Jim Lowry coll. (2 slides), both deposited at the AMS.
Falkland Islands det. Schellenberg (1 slide), deposited at SNM.
All the studied material matches the original description of S. aucklandica except the unequal rami of U2, which are defined for S. aucklandica var. falklandica Schellenberg, 1931 from the Falkland islands as different from those of S. aucklandica, but are equal also to the Falkland material studied here, and the reported ovoid bases on P 6, 7, which are here nearly circular.
Thus, the variety S. a. falklandica is withdrawn.
DistributionAuckland and Falkland Islands.
