Description

Berryteuthis septemdentatus (Sasaki, 1915) comb. nov.

(Fig. 1)

Gonatus septemdentatus Sasaki, 1915: 185; 1929: 270, Pl. XXII, figs 19–22, textfigs 129, 130.

Gonatus magister Berry, 1913 – Kondakov, 1941: 224, fig. 12, 13 [in part]; Akimushkin, 1963: 185, fig. 51(1) [in part].

Berryteuthis magister – Nesis, 1982: 190, fig. 50 a,b [in part]; Roper et al., 1984: 143 [in part].

Berryteuthis magister nipponensis Okutani, Kubodera in Okutani et al., 1987: 132 [in part]; Jereb, Roper, 2010: 211 [in part].

Berryteuthis magister shevtsovi Katugin, 2000: 91, figs 7–11.

Type material: holotype specimen of Berryteuthis magister shevtsovi is designated as neotype for Berryteuthis septemdentatus: mature male, 162 mm dorsal mantle length (Fig. 1); Research Vessel “ Professor Kaganovsky ”, Sea of Japan, 42 ° 30´N, 133 ° 42´E, bottom trawl at a approx. 600 m deep, May 23, 1996. Coll. by P. V. Kalchugin, deposited in the Museum of A. V. Zhirmunsky National Scientific Center of Marine Biology (Vladivostok), Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, No MIMB 32372.

Paratype: immature female, 172 mm dorsal mantle length, the same locality and date; deposited in the same collection with the holotype, No MIMB 32373.

The transfer of Berryteuthis anonychus (Pearcy and Voss, 1963) to new genus Okutania [Katugin, 2004] rendered Berryteuthis a monotypic genus, but we suggest that there are, indeed, two species, which are now recognized as Berryteuthis septemdentatus and B. magister. The latter one as presently understood is likely be composed of several geographical populations for which there is preliminary evidence [Katugin, 1998, 1999, 2000; Katugin et al., 2013; Alekseev, 2020].
