Neotype locality. Bonaire, Dutch Caribbean (Atlantic Ocean)

Diagnosis. Alatina with tall narrow bell, flared at base, tapering into truncated pyramid at apex; 4 crescentric gastric phacellae at interradial corners of stomach; 3 simple to palmate branching velarial canals per octant, each with a velarial lappet bearing a row of 3 to 4 nematocyst warts; 4 long wing–like (sensu Reynaud 1830) pedalia, each with a pink tentacle. Cnidome consisting of heterotrichous microbasic p–euryteles and small birhopaloids in tentacles, and large isorhizas in nematocysts warts.

Description ( Figs 1–6 , Table 1). Neotype Fig 2a–f .

Mature female specimen (BW 40 mm, BH 70 mm live; BW 30 mm, BH 69 mm preserved), with tall narrow bell flared at base ( Fig 2a ), tapering into truncated pyramid at apex. Each interradial corner bearing a pedalium: 3 of the 4 pedalia long and broad (approximately 15 mm wide) and wing–like, each bearing a pink tentacle (2a, c) about 2 mm in diameter, with bands of nematocysts along the entire length ( Fig 2c, e ). Fourth pedalium bearing a remnant of a tentacle (only several millimeters in height and width), much smaller and thinner than the other three (possibly damaged while being photographed together with other live specimens in an aquarium). Bell transparent and colorless in life ( Fig 2a ), translucent in fixed specimens ( Fig 2e ); exumbrella speckled with nematocyst warts. Stomach shallow ( Fig 2b ), lacking mesenteries. Manubrium short (2–3 mm long), wide and flat, with 4 mouth lips curled at the tips. Each of the four corners of the stomach housing a crescentric gastric phacella bearing about 20 gastric cirri ( Fig 2a, b ). A pair of leaf–like gonads, flanking each interradial septa and extending into the gastro– vascular cavity, filled with developing oocytes ( Fig 2a, b ). Adjacent gonads (i.e., ovaries) overlapping in the gastrovacular cavity, disassociated into large pieces following rupture due to internal fertilization event prior to preservation in formalin. Clumps of eggs found in various parts of the gastrovascular system (e.g., the velarial and pedalial canals, and the gastric pockets). Velarium wide, suspended by 4 perradial muscular brackets (frenulae) bracing the subumbrellar wall. Each octant bearing 3 simple to palmate branching velarial canals (variable with each octant), with the pair flanking the peradial frenulum simple to bifurcating, those flanking the pedalia at the interadius bifurcating as two main branches each with 3 to 4 distal branches (up to 7 branches in total), with the velarial canal in between bearing three distal branches ( Fig 2d ). Velarial canals in the two octants flanking the diminutive pedalium are not organized in the regular orderly fashion seen in the 6 other octants. Additionally, the velarium is torn near the base of the smaller pedalium, making it difficult to count the number of velarial canal branches there (N.B. the damaged pedalium is not readily apparent in the live photographs of the neotype specimen, and its small size may be exaggerated due to shrinkage following fixation in formalin). A new cubozoan character was discovered that appears to have been overlooked by previous workers. The structure which we call velarial lappets is found in sets of three in each octant overlaying the proximal two thirds of each velarial canal, each bearing a row of 3 to 4 nematocyst warts ( Fig 2d ). Four club–shaped rhopalia ( Fig 2a ), each situated just above the point where the frenulum connects to the subumbrella bearing 2 median lensed eyes, 2 lateral slit eyes, 2 lateral pit eyes, and 1 statocyst ( Fig 2f ). Rhopaliar niche opening T–shaped (sensu Gershwin 2005), with a single upper scale and 2 lower scales ( Fig 2f ). Nematocyst warts are scattered over the entire exumbrella and bell apex; occurring in rows varying in number along the pedalial keel and the rhopalial niche scales ( Fig 2f ). Cnidome characterized below.

Other material. Medusae measurements are given as min– mean –max values, and were made on preserved specimens unless otherwise stated.

In addition to the neotype, forty five A. alata specimens were examined (BH = 8– 48 – 100 mm, BW = 5– 20 – 49 mm). Bells tall, narrow truncated pyramids like the neotype ( Fig 1a ; 4g , 6a–c ). Four long wing–like pedalia ( Fig 1b ; 3c ; 6a–c ), each with a single highly contractile tentacle, round in cross–section, ‘fluorescent’ pink in both live and preserved specimens, with numerous bands of nematocysts along the length ( Fig 5a ). Wide velarium ( Fig 1c, d ; 3a–d ), suspended by 4 perradial muscular brackets (frenulae) bracing the subumbrellar wall ( Fig 3a–d ). Twenty four simple to branching velarial canals, 3 per octant, extending from the gastro–vascular space of the bell into the velarium ( Fig 1c, d ; 3a–c & e ). Velarial canals flanking perradial frenulae simple, bifurcating distally, or giving rise to side branches; those flanking interradial pedalia splitting into two distinct sub–branches in first half to two– thirds of main branch; subsequent branching increasing in complexity (on average 4 sub–branches per primary branch; maximum 10), making it difficult to trace velarial canal tips back to the original branch, and often giving the appearance of greater than 3 primary velarial canals per octant ( Fig 1c, d ; 3a, b ). Bifurcating velarial canals in individuals as small as BH = 8 mm; some canals with three branches in individuals of BH = 16 mm. Larger medusae generally displaying more highly branched velarial canals; wide variation exists between each octant in a single individual (1 to 5 branches seen per canal). Velarial lappets are thick gelatinous pouch–like structures comprising the proximal 50–75% of each velarial canal (24 total; 3 per octant), each bearing a row of 3–4 nematocyst warts ( Fig 3a, b, e ), function unknown. Bell transparent and colorless in life ( Fig 4g , 6a–c ), translucent in fixed specimens, speckled with nematocyst warts (nematocyst warts in older material were often lacking, and may have rubbed off in collection gear or after many years in preservation fluids, despite velarial lappet warts being still recognizable in most specimens).

Rhopaliar niche opening T–shaped (sensu Gershwin 2005), with a single upper scale and 2 lower scales enclosing the rhopalial niche ( Fig 1e ). Four club–shaped rhopalia, each with 2 median lensed eyes, 2 lateral slit eyes, 2 lateral pit eyes, and 1 statocyst ( Fig 3f, g ). All eyes are conspicuous in newly collected material from Bonaire, but in older preserved museum specimens the lens eyes are discolored (having a brown tinge), and bilateral paired pigmented pit eyes and slit eyes are faded to absent, leaving only the complex lens eyes visible. This may be an artifact of prolonged exposure to fixatives.

Stomach shallow, lacking mesenteries; manubrium short (2–3 mm long), wide and flat, 4 mouth lips curled at the tips ( Fig 4a, f ). Four crescentric gastric phacellae, 1 in each corner of the shallow stomach, each with 6–24 basal trunks branching several times at the base, giving rise to up to 100 terminal filaments (gastric cirri) in larger specimens ( Fig 1f, g ; 4a, b, d–g ). Smaller individuals (BH<20 mm) possessing long filaments (6–8 basal trunks) extending from each corner into the stomach, giving appearance of a central mass ( Fig 4c ). Eight narrow leaf–like gonads extend in pairs within the gastric pockets, along either side of the interradial septa; filled with developing sperm or eggs in mature males and females ( Fig 4d, g, h ). We examined preserved individuals with gonads (BH = 16– 61 –100, BW = 6– 23 –34, n = 23), as well as preserved medusae without gonads (BH = 8– 32 –88, BW = 5– 15 –32, n = 22). All medusae <BH = 16 mm lacked gonads, as did many larger medusae (n = 18). Gonads presumably are shed in mature medusae following a spawning event (see Arneson 1976). Gonads, translucent in live medusae ( Fig 4g ; 6a, b ), turning cream to pale amber in spawning medusae; and opaque in fixed material. Ripe gonads overlap along the perradial plane, becoming increasingly pleated ( Fig 4g ).

Cnidome Table 1; Fig 5a–h . Nematocyst measurements are provided as min– mean –max; L = length of capsule in µm, W = width of capsule at widest point in µm, SD = standard deviation, n = number of nematocysts measured. Nematocyst identification follows Mariscal (1974), Östman (2000), and Collins et al. (2011).
