Material examined

SOUTH ATLANTIC OCEAN • 5 colonies, up to 5 mm high (2 growing on algae), all without gonothecae; Vema Seamount, stn BT5; 31°37′16″–31°36′58″ S, 8°22′37″–8°23′06″ E; 71–94 m depth; 31 Jan. 2015; SEAFO-2015 leg.; SEAFO-2015-40407, SEAFO-2015-40513, SEAFO-2015-40768, SEAFO-2015-40798, SEAFO-2015-40882, LZM-UV slide R. 585.

Distribution

Sertularella areyi is considered as a circumtropical species (Calder 2013). It was reported from the east coast of South Africa by Millard (1975, as Sertularella annulaventricosa Mulder & Trebilcock, 1915), but not from the west coast. Our record from Vema Seamount is the first one in the South Atlantic Ocean. The bathymetric distribution ranges from 47 (Millard 1975, as S. annulaventricosa) to a depth of 480 m (Vervoort 1993).
