Euantedon polytes A. H. Clark, 1936 View in CoL

Euantedon polytes A. H. Clark, 1936: 315 View in CoL , pl. 7 fig. 5, pl. 8 fig. 6; A. H. Clark and A. M. Clark 1967: 106; A. M. Clark and Rowe 1971: 26 (key); Fabricius 1994: 1228 (table).

Material examined. 5 specimens. Ambon Is. NSMT E- 8107 (5 specimens), Pombo I ., lagoon, November 27, 1992.

Description. Centrodorsal low hemispherical, 3 mm across, 1 mm thick with cirrus sockets in 2–3 alternating rows and flat and smooth aboral pole. Cirri about XL, 13–15, 8– 12 mm long. Longest cirrals (5 th –7 th) about 2 times longer than wide; distal cirrals shorter than wide, no aboral spine. Radials narrowly exposed, in contact laterally. IBr 2, with aboral synarthrial tubercle: Ibr 1 oblong, free laterally; Ibr 2 (axil) rhombic. Arms 10, about 80 mm long; first syzygy at br 3+4. P 1 longest, 10–14 mm long, of 22–26 segments, nearly 3 times longer than P 3 –P 5; middle pinnulars about 2 times longer than wide with smooth distal margin. P 2 intermediate in length between P 1 and P 3.

Distribution. Indonesia (A. M. Clark and Rowe 1971); Great Barrier Reef ( Fabricius 1994). Depth range: 2–15 m (A. H. Clark and A. M. Clark 1967).
