Type locality.
Mediterranean Sea, Italy (not specified).
Distribution.
Mediterranean Sea (Italian coast), shallow waters.
Remarks.
This is one of the most well-known cerianthid species, but at the same time there are many questions about the taxonomic consistency of past works. This was the first species of Ceriantharia described (type locality Italy); however, this has caused many records from the Mediterranean Sea being incorrectly attributed to this species. For example, Pax (1908) argued that C. (Saccanthus) maderensis (= Isarachnanthus maderensis ) Johnson, 1861 is synonym of C. membranaceus based on the two species’ original descriptions. However, the descriptions presented and discussed by Johnson (1861) and Pax (1908) are incompatible with C. membranaceus and more likely describe a species of the family Arachnactidae , perhaps a member of the genus Isarachnanthus . In addition, I. maderensis is very common in Madeira and the Azores ( Stampar et al. 2012; Stampar and Morandini 2017). Haque (1977) recorded C. membranaceus from Bangladesh and Pakistan, but these records are biogeographically incongruent and probably these specimens from the Indian Ocean are another species. In short, C. membranaceus is a species that requires a comprehensive review of all its records, especially for the presence of cryptic species, and to assess if the different morphotypes reported truly belong to just one species or to a species complex.
