Symplegma brakenhielmi (Michaelsen,1904)
Stations. SD4; SR23.
In thin sheets of tightly joined zooids the colonies settle on diverse kinds of substrates. They become uniformly grey in formalin. When fixed this species looks superficially like Symplegma rubra but differs by the gonads. In S. brakenhielmi there is on each side an ovary between 2 testis lobes, both male and female elements maturing at the same time.
This species is widely distributed in all oceans and already known in the Western atlantic from Fblorida to Brazil ( Rocha & Costa (2005).
