Description

Actinostola sp.4

Fig. 3G.

MATERIAL. LV-82-18, 61.1195ºN 174. 9650ºE – 61.1194ºN 174.9653ºE, depth 658–662 m, sample 3, one specimen collected.

REMARKS. This orange species of Actinostola closely resembles Actinostola sp.3 described above, and they can occur together (collected at the same station) on the Koryak slope in the Western Bering Sea. It differs by whitish (rather than yellowish) mesogloeal thickening on the tentacles, and collected specimen has different texture of the column (slippery to the touch), clearly different from that of Actinostola sp.3. One specimen was collected.
