Eutima McCrady, 1859

Peter Schuchert, 2017, Systematic notes on some leptomedusa species with a description of Neotima galeai n. spec. (Hydrozoa, Cnidaria), Revue suisse de Zoologie 124 (2), pp. 351-375 : 361

Genus Eutima McCrady, 1859

Remarks: See Vannucci (1957) and Bouillon (1984) for a discussion and comparison of species.

According to Migotto et al. (2004), Eutima sapinhoa Narchi & Hebling, 1975 lacks cirri and in the adult medusa the gonads stretch from the manubrium to close to the bell margin. Using the classification of Bouillon et al. (2006), the species must therefore be transferred to the genus Neotima as Neotima sapinhoa ( Narchi & Hebling, 1975) n. comb.
