Pentacta doliolum (Pallas, 1766) View in CoL

( Fig. 23 View FIGURE 23 A – C)

Actinia doliolum Pallas, 1766: 152 , pl. ii, figs 10 – 12.

Pentacta doliolum View in CoL ; Cherbonnier, 1952: 490, pl. 43, figs 1 – 15 (synonymy); Thandar, 1991: 122, figs. 1b, 7, 14c (synonymy and records before 1991)

Pentacta tesselara ; Samyn et al. 2006: 116 fig. 83 A – H (non P. tesselara Cherbonnier, 1970 )

Material examined. Non-type material: IE-2007-809 (1 specimen, sampled in front of Nazendry Bay ) Remarks. Thandar (1991; 2006) questioned whether this species is present in East Africa. The present record confirms it is present in the Indian Ocean. Moreover, the specimen studied matches well with material from the nearby Comoros Islands of the same species which, we had previously erroneously identified as P. tesselara Cherbonnier, 1970 ( Samyn et al., 2006)
