Asterina novaezelandiae Perrier View in CoL
Asterina novaezelandiae Perrier, 1875: 308 View in CoL .— Koehler, 1920: 135–136, pl. 35 figs 8–9.
Patiria novaezelandiae View in CoL . — Verrill, 1913: 482.
Remarks. The single type specimen of A. novaezelandiae was reported by Perrier (1875) from New Zealand but A.M. Clark (1993) noted “ holotype originally with specimens of Patiriella gunnii supposedly from New Zealand but almost certainly from southern Australia ”. If this is the case, it may be a five-rayed form of a species of Meridiastra . The description of three furrow spines and three subambulacral spines suggests Meridiastra medius ( O’Loughlin et al., 2003) . The specimen could not be found.
