| Description | This study describes species of the genusHymedesmiafrom three areas of cold-water coral reef: Mingulay Reef Complex (Scotland, UK) and Rockall and Porcupine Banks (off UK and Irish coasts). Five new species are described:Hymedesmia (Hymedesmia) gibbosa, H. stoneae, H. tendali, H. xavieraeandH. valentinae. Records are provided of other poorly knownHymedesmiaspecies:H. bocki, H. cohesibacilla, H. curvichela, H. ebria, H. gustafsoni, H. simillima, H. irregularis, H. proxima, H. hibernicaandH. primitiva. Information on distribution of otherHymedesmiaspecies occurring in Britain and Ireland is presented. The sites studied represent a variety of depth-ranges and the data collected suggest that someHymedesmiaspecies may be restricted to particular bathymetric zones. |
