Description

Tentacle from pelagic jellyfish found on pinger (Fig. 13).

Genetic data for this taxon with new GenBank accession numbers are provided in Table 2.

Diagnosis

No genetic matches at Genbank but in a COI tree (not shown) it is sister to Nectopyramis natans although with quite low support, while the 18S sequence BLAST search is nearest to Rhizophysa eysenhardti .
