New Zealand Antarctic Expedition TAN0802: Stn 180 , Tangaroa , 29 February 2008 , 69.4318°S , 178.8195°W (off Cape Adare, Ross Sea,), 447–455 m ( NIWA 37896). Description. Monosiphonic, unbranched stems, up to 70 mm high, divided into internodes. Angle between cauline apophyses and stem ca. 45°. Cauline apophyses with three nematophores, two axillary ones ( Fig. 6 B), each emerging through simple hole in perisarc, and a third nematophore emerging through ‘mamelon’ ( Fig. 6 A–B). Hydrocladia unbranched ( Fig. 6 A) or bifurcated. Mesial-inferior nematophore emerging from strongly marked swelling at proximal third of internode ( Fig. 6 D); without nematotheca ( Fig. 6 C–D). Hydrotheca placed on middle of internode ( Fig. 6 A, C–D). Hydrotheca elongate. Adcauline wall mostly adnate, but with a distinct free portion ( Fig. 6 D). Abcauline wall almost straight, but slightly convex basally and typically with slight concavity just under hydrothecal rim ( Fig. 6 C–D). Hydrothecal aperture circular, perpendicular to long axis of internode, rim even ( Fig. 6 C–D). Gonothecae fusiform. Male gonotheca with circular, subterminal aperture. Female gonotheca with wide, circular, distal opening ( Fig. 6 E). Remarks. Until now only mature male gonothecae and immature female ones were known (cf. Peña Cantero et al . 1997); we have found mature female gonothecae ( Fig. 6 E).
