Remarks | Colony: one colony. The locality was ascertained based on a published record of the collection trip of Prof. Kakichi Mitsukuri with Juta Hara to Kagoshima in 1896 (Isono, 1988). There are two 神瀬 in Kagoshima Prefecture i.e., a deep bank off Ibusuki city (see Telesto tubulosa: UMUTZ-Cnid-A-103) and a small Island in Kagoshima Bay. The locality was considered to later, because the habitat of this species is shallow bottom. |
