Collotheca ornata

Description

Collotheca ornata (Ehrenberg, 1832)

(Fig. 4B)

Froscularia ornata Ehrenberg 1832: 146.

Collotheca ornata – Kutikova 1970: 688, Meksuwan et al. 2013: 13, Shiel 1995: 33

Notes. Despite the fact that C. ornata cornuta is considered more typical of Antarctica (Dougherty & Harris 1963, Dartnall 1995, 2000 and others), we considered the collected individuals to be representative of the typical species C. ornata due to the lack of a specific worm-like appendage on the spinal blade.
