The strengthening buttresses reported in Acryptolaria angulata by Vervoort and Watson (2003) are actually abcauline intrathecal septa; these do not occur in the present specimen.

Small lax colonies to several centimetres high; some colonies fertile.</p><p>Colonies fasciculated basally, ultimate branches monosiphonic. Hydrothecae numerous, tubular, given off from around branches in fasciculated sections, more or less subalternate on monosiphonic branches. Hydrotheca adherent to branch for more than half of length, abcauline wall variably concave, adcauline wall convex, curving smoothly outwards, free wall shorter than adnate wall.

Without a discernible floor, the length of the hydrothecae is highly variable, making it difficult to provide a precise estimate of length.</p><p>Cryptolarella abyssicola was first described from Challenger Station 160 from a depth of 4755 m south of Australia (42°42 S, 134°10 E) (Allman 1888). In his description Allman commented on the “vast depth” from which the species came, and the height of the colony, about 2 inches (= 4.5 cm). C. abyssicola has since been recorded world-wide from Sierra Leone, the Azores, Tierra del Fuego, Peru and the Antarctic (Marques et al. 2005) and from abyssal depths under several specific names. The present specimens conform well to the redescription and dimensions of the holotype given by Marques et al. (2005). This survey indicates that C. abyssicola is a dominant abyssal species around southern Australia.</p><p>Distribution. Australia (type locality), Sierra Leone, Azores, Tierra del Fuego, Peru, Antarctic.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/481587DFFFACFFE28FBAFDA32B9BF3A9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(1997)]. Although the present material is meagre and without gonothecae, the hydrotheca is extremely large and much bigger than any known species.</p><p>Etymology.

A branched stem fragment 5 mm long with four alternate branches on each side; stem and branches monosiphonic. Two tubular subopposite hydrothecae on stem internode, adcauline walls separated, nodes strong, transverse, deeply indented. Apophysis long, narrowing distally to transverse node, an axillar hydrotheca pointing along hydrocladium.</p><p>First branch internode long, athecate, expanding slightly to a strong opposed V-shaped joint. Branch internodes same as stem, nodes may be absent but where present transverse to slightly oblique, strongly contracted. Hydrothecae opposite, tubular, base of one hydrotheca usually slightly downwardly displaced with respect to that opposite. Lower adcauline wall of each pair adnate, wall straight to weakly convex basally, the convexity increasing towards free wall; free wall weakly convex or concave to margin. Abcauline wall smoothly concave, some walls slightly bulging just above base. Floor transverse to internode, a small downward septum from adnate wall passing into internode. Margin deep saddle-shaped, flanked by a pair of long, sharp lateral cusps.</p><p>Perisarc thick, colour (preserved material) shining golden brown.</p><p>Remarks. The fragment is probably an apical branch of a larger colony. The hydrothecae closely resemble Amphisbetia minima (Thompson, 1879), a common shallow water species in Australia and New Zealand. A. minima invariably has short unbranched stems unlike the branching habit of A. ramifera . In colony size and branching habit, A. ramifera resembles Amphisbetia maplestonei (Bale, 1884) but in contrast to A. maplestonei the hydrocladial hydrothecae of A. ramifera are in contact with each other, do not have an abcauline intrathecal septum and the marginal cusps are much more prominent. No other Australian species of Amphisbetia has the smoothly outward-curved hydrothecae and such prominent marginal cusps as A. ramifera .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/481587DFFFAFFFE78C00F9182C1EF6F0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

QM G337985. Paratype, one microslide from holotype colony .</p><p>Description. Infertile colony 90 mm long, broken in two. Hydrorhiza comprising a group of smooth tubular stolons coalescing to form parallel polysiphonic tubes of lower stem. Colony with three primary branches on upper stem section. Branches monosiphonic, cylindrical, with a row of up to 15 nematothecae below first hydrocladium.</p><p>Hydrocladia with many hydrothecae. Hydrocladium long, lax, apophysis large, distal node oblique, two nematothecae in a line below hydrocladium and one beside axil. Hydrocladial internode narrow, node distinct, slightly oblique, two partial septa passing into internode from base of hydrotheca, one below hydranth, the other about halfway along internode.</p><p>Hydrotheca occupying much of internode, slipper-shaped, abcauline and adcauline hydrothecal walls gently convex, adcauline wall fully adnate to internode. Margin slightly oblique to internode axis, anterior cusp tongue-shaped, followed by two moderately pointed cusps then three indefinite low cusps, interspaces between very shallow.</p><p>Median nematotheca digitate, very short, almost entirely adnate to hydrotheca, terminal orifice small, pointing upwards, open down to hydrotheca. Lateral nematotheca tubular, just reaching margin of hydrotheca, orifice sinusoidal down to internode. Cauline nematothecae the same as laterals. Hydranth with approximately 10 tentacles, hypostome mound-shaped.</p><p>Perisarc moderately thick throughout colony.</p><p>Remarks. Unfortunately the preserved colony was not examined in detail prior to mounting. Its position on the microslide now prevents determination of whether the hydrocladia were spirally arranged. Its close resemblance to Lytocarpia spiralis (Totton, 1930) suggests that the hydrocladia may be spirally arranged. The hydrothecae are much smaller and the marginal cusps less prominent than in L. spiralis (see Vervoort and Watson 2003). Lytocarpia parvispiralis is clearly an abyssal congener of L. spiralis, a species common around New Zealand to depths of 1126 m.</p><p>Etymology. The name alludes to the smaller size of L. parvispiralis compared to its close congener L. spiralis .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/481587DFFFA9FFE78FA5F8E32A66F72E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
