Information |
“Telestidae, Pseudocladochonus hicksoni Versluys, Station Coral ground off Chikura, Date, Aug. 1899, coll. Miyajima”.

Remarks |
Colony: one colony.
Both Chikura, the locality name on the label, and Chikura Island, the locality name in the reference, seem to be an error for Tsukurase Island, because one of the coral grounds of Kagoshima Prefecture is located off Tsukurase Island according to Kitahara (1904). Furthermore Siphonogorgia sp. (UMUTZ-Cnid-A-50) was collected from near Tsukurase Island (津倉瀬島) by the same collector on 13 July 1899. This label is an official label of the Albatross Expedition.
