Publication
Gonothecae of both sexes and the non-released medusoids of Dentitheca dendritica (Nutting, 1900) are described for the first time. The genus Nemalecium Bouillon, 1986 is enriched through the discovery of a second species, N. gracile sp. nov., in Martinique, Lesser Antilles. Morphological data and comparison with material provisionally assigned to N. lighti (Hargitt,1924) are provided. The mono- or dioecious colonies of N. gracile produce a swimming cryptomedusoid gonophore. The cnidome of Nemalecium is shown to comprise not only pseudostenoteles and microbasic mastigophores, but also two additional nematocyst types unreported so far.
