discussion
Remarks: according to Calder et al. (2003), the identification of a polyp stage as Zanclea gemmosa McCrady, 1859 is questionable because this species was originally described only from the medusa stage. Distribution in South America: polyp — Pacific Ocean, Colombia, at 5.99 ° N 77.36 ° W in Port Utria, Ecuador, at 0.27 ° S 91.37 ° W in Isla Isabela, at 1.35 ° S 89.66 ° W in Isla Española (Fraser 1938 a, 1939, 1 948; Calder et al. 2003). Habitat: polyp — on gastropods and sponge, from 46 to 64 m depth (Fraser 1938 a; Calder et al. 2003).
