Anthoathecata View in CoL : Aplanulata: Tubulariidae

Ectopleura viridis ( Pictet, 1893) View in CoL is sister to all other Ectopleura species included in the analyses, but the nodal support of the genus based on 16S rRNA data is low ( Fig. 24A View FIGURE 24 ).

Of note, sequences obtained from specimens of E. dumortierii ( Van Beneden, 1844) View in CoL from Chile ( Galea 2007: 31) and France (Atlantic Ocean) are here demonstrated to belong to different species, not forming a monophyletic clade and showing a high genetic distance of 12.7% between them.
