Schizomavella ( Schizomavella ) aff. linearis ( Hassall, 1841 ) (MNCN 25.03/4310). A. General view of a colony part showing fertile and infertile zooids. B. Detail view of the orifice. C. Detail of a suboral avicularium on the suboral umbo base, showing serrated rostrum. D. Detail of the distal part a fertile zooid showing a large ovicell with a proximal line of large pseudopores. Scale bars: A, 300 µm; B, 40 µm; C, 60 µm; D, 100 µm. Remarks. Several specimens from the Mediterranean Sea assigned to T. complanata were reviewed by Reverter- Gil & Souto (2019), who maintained as valid the records of this species from Catalonia and the Strait of Gibraltar ( Zabala 1986 ; López de la Cuadra & García-Gómez 1988 ; López de la Cuadra 1991; see Reverter-Gil & Souto 2019 for comments about its geographic distribution). The Alboran colonies have slightly smaller zooids (L 600–800 μm x W 350–600 μm) but within the range reported by Reverter-Gil & Souto (2019) .
