Description
Colony yellowish brown, erect, dichotomously branching, irregularly spreading; up to 10 cm high ( Fig. 7A View Fig ). Branches flattened ( Figs 7B View Fig , 9A View Fig ), multiserial, with zooids opening both sides, rounded at end; 1.6–4.6 mm wide (average 2.8 mm; n = 27). Autozooids oval or hexagonal, outlined by a distinct deep marginal groove ( Figs 7C View Fig , 8C View Fig , 9B View Fig ), with 6–9 small pores along each lateral margin and two or three small frontal pores just proximal to orifice. Frontal shield umbonuloid ( Fig. 10A View Fig ). Young autozooids at growing margin of branch have concave frontal shields surrounded by broad, swollen rim with rows of granulation arranged perpendicular to margin ( Fig. 7 View Fig E–F); rim width 41–76 μm (average 57 μm) (n = 31). Mature frontal shield convex, entirely covered with minute granules. Spiramen abuts proximal end of suboral avicularium; subdivided into two or three openings separated by narrow septa, or lobate due to incomplete septa ( Fig. 7C View Fig ); with increased calcification, sometimes appearing as single opening ( Fig. 7D View Fig ); reduced in size during ontogeny, associated with depression of avicularian rostrum, sometimes occluded ( Figs 7D View Fig , 8D View Fig ). Secondary orifice nearly circular ( Fig. 7C View Fig ) or broader than long ( Figs 7D View Fig , 8C View Fig ); peristomial rim lacking; primary orifice submerged deep in peristome. Large, suboral avicularium in center of frontal shield, extending from spiramen to proximolateral corner of orifice, or nearly so, usually pointing distolaterally ( Figs 7C, F View Fig , 9B View Fig ); rostrum slightly raised distally, not hooked; mandible elongate-triangular; no crossbar. Additional smaller frontal avicularium often present near proximal end of zooid; identical in form to suboral avicularium; pointing in any direction ( Fig. 7C View Fig ). Gonozooids occur at branch bifurcations ( Fig. 8B, E View Fig ); larger than autozooids, with broader, slightly curving orifice; bearing suboral avicularium; smaller frontal avicularia either lacking ( Fig. 8B, E View Fig ) or up to three per zooid ( Fig. 7 View Fig G–H). Spiramen large, roughly circular in outline, divided into 6–10 pores ( Figs 7 View Fig G–H, 8B). Spiramen lacking marginal denticles in both autozooids and gonozooids ( Figs 7C, F View Fig , 8E View Fig ), although incomplete septa may appear as denticles. Vicarious avicularia at branch margins ( Figs 7D View Fig , 8A View Fig , 9 View Fig C–D) smaller than autozooids; triangular, with mandible directed distally. Basal part of branch consists of kenozooids with secondary orifice occluded by secondary calcification ( Fig. 8D View Fig ); about same size as autozooids, 486–631 μm long (average 541 μm) by 199–351 μm wide (average 314 μm) (n = 11). Kenozooids also bearing several small avicularia budded from areolae, near proximal margin of zooid, associated with other marginal pores ( Fig. 8D View Fig ), 101–152 μm long (average 121 μm) by 47–75 μm wide (average 59 μm) (n = 15).
Remarks
Ortmann (1890) first described Adeonellopsis japonica as Adeonella japonica , based on Döderlein’s specimens from Sagami Bay. Hayward (1988) discussed this species in his revision of Adeonella , though he did not examine Ortmann’s material; he argued that Adeonella japonica almost certainly belongs in Adeonella because of the elongate avicularia along the edge of the branches, as described by Ortmann. However, the frontal shield of A. japonica is umbonuloid, rather than the lepralioid frontal shield characteristic of Adeonella ; therefore, A. japonica clearly belongs in Adeonellopsis . Harmer (1957) reported a Japanese adeonid species resembling Adeonellopsis parvipuncta MacGillivray (1886) , which has two kinds of spiramina: a small, undivided, slightly denticulate single pore, or a much larger pore region comprising many pores. These features of the spiramen completely correspond to the spiramina of autozooids and gonozooids in A. japonica . Harmer (1957) noted that a few zooids in the middle of the branches have a larger spiramen, which is the condition of gonozooids in A. japonica . Furthermore, his sketch of the larger zooid also indicates a broader, slightly curved orifice. I thus consider Harmer’s A. parvipuncta to be a synonym of A. japonica .
Distribution
Japan: Sagami Bay, Sagami Sea, Suruga Bay, Kii Peninsula, Kouchi, and Otsuchi; 48.7–493 m depth. The current species has also been collected from Hawaii (off Oahu Island), 549–605 m depth, by the R/V Albatross (USNM 271601, IZ cat 8450; RB 8450) ( Fig. 9 View Fig ).
Okada & Mawatari (1938) reported this species from Kata, Seto, and off Wakayama, around the Kii Peninsula; the specimens in the SMBL include both A. japonica and Adeonella cf. lichenoides . Mawatari (1952) also reported A. japonica from Wakayama Prefecture, without a description, but with an illustration (pl. XII, fig. 1), which apparently shows proximally swollen zooids and the absence of suboral avicularia, and is more similar to A. cf. lichenoides . Adeonellopsis japonica is one of the common erect species in the Sagami Sea ( Hirose et al. 2012).
