| Two new genera and four new species of the gorgonacean family Chrysogorgiidae are described and illustrated, and keys to the genera and species are presented. The genus Stephanogorgia is established for a new shallow-water species, Stephanogorgia wainwrighti, from the Fiji Islands. A second new species from the Sulu Archipelago, collected by the U.S. Fish Commission steamer "Albatross", is described as S. diomedea. A species from the Palau Islands, recently described by Bayer as Trichogorgia faulkneri, is shown to be generically distinct from Trichogorgia and is here transferred to Stephanogorgia. A new species of the genus Trichogorgia Hickson, obtained by diving and shallowwater trawling in the Caribbean Sea, is described as Trichogorgia lyra, and the... |

| The genus Paragorgia was established by Milne Edwards & Haime in 1857 to receive the large, boreal scleraxonian octocoral from the "Norwegian Ocean", called Alcyonium arboreum by Linnaeus (1758). In subsequent years, that species was reported also from localities in the northern Pacific Ocean (Kinoshita, 1913; Hickson, 1915) and from high southern latitudes off the Falkland Islands (Broch, 1957). In 1883, Koren & Danielssen described two new species from Batalden, Norway, Paragorgia nodosa and Briareum frielei, which generally have been treated as synonyms of P. arborea. Nutting (1908, 1912), however, reported P. nodosa from deep waters off Hawaii and Japan and, furthermore, established a new Japanese species, Paragorgia regalis. Kinoshita (1913)... |
