Remarks | Colony: one colony. “Yodomi” is a fishing ground located about 10 km southwest of the Miura Peninsula, Kanagawa Prefecture, at the ntersection point of the “Yahagi-line” and “Mera 1”. “Yahagi-line” in the label is a fishermen’s expression used to pinpoint a fishing ground. It is a line from Fujiyama Mountain (see the Remarks for UMUTZ-Cnid-P-62) in the direction of Yahagi, Miura city, Kanagawa Prefecture. “Mera 1” is a similar line extending from Mera, Tateyama city, Chiba Prefecture, in the direction of Oiso town, Kanagawa Prefecture, with “1” meaning “the first”. Thomson & Rennet (1927) mistook “Mera 1” for Mera Island in their article. |
