(Cnidaria), a cubozoan with zooxanthellae and peculiar polyp anatomy Author Straehler-Pohl, Ilka Author Jarms, Gerhard text Zootaxa 2011 2755 36 56 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.203576 f6dd2934-77ab-47b2-8774-580ee2a0c8f6 1175-5326 203576 Carybdea morandinii , sp. nov. Holotype — one preserved cubopolyp, from a culture established from specimens obtained in a saltwater tank at Hagenbecks Tierpark, Hamburg, Germany , and originally from east Asia , deposited in collections of the Zoologisches Institut und Zoologisches Museum, Universität Hamburg ( ZMH ) No.C.11999. Paratype series —20 preserved, fully developed cubopolyps with buds, 10 preserved cubopolyps without buds, one young medusa, and five preserved creeping cubopolyps, ZMH No.C.11750. Type locality — On coral rock, originally from east Asia , in a seawater tank at Hagenbecks Tierpark (Zoo), Hamburg, Germany . Additional material – living polyps under cultivation in our laboratory. Etymology — The specific name “ morandinii ” honours Dr. André Carrara Morandini, a well known Medusozoa morphologist and taxonomist. Dr. Morandini was working as a guest researcher in our laboratory when the species was discovered. His knowledge of Cubozoa helped determine that the cubopolyps likely represented a new species.
