Discovery reports (1956) Discovery reports discoveryreports27inst Year: 1956 .P/.M. i mm Text-fig. 52. Sulculeolaria turgida, posterior nectophore, 'Discovery II' St. 1581, x 11. A, ventral view; B, lateral view. [Galetta] Sulculeolaria angusta The outline of the anterior nectophore (Text-fig. 53 C) has the general Sulculeolaria form. The halves of the long' mouth-plate' or lamella of the anterior nectophore have a roundly pointed posterior edge as can be seen in a well-preserved specimen after The somatocyst is minute, but varies in size. The profile of the posterior nectophore is long and narrow, without the ' broad baso-ventral sector' of Bigelow. The lamella of the posterior nectophore is roundly notched as in Galetta chuni, but is thicker in its basal half. About the centre of the mouth-plate appears a variable little prominence. It lies at the terminal end of the thick basal part of the lamella. Between this and the notch is a thinner area. No lateral ridges or wings have been seen, even on well-preserved specimens of the posterior nectophore. 1 It is generally advisable to stain Sulculeolariinae. With specimens preserved in formalin which has been buffered with hexamine, this may be done fairly quickly, after one or two washes in distilled water, by adding two or three drops of Delafield's haematoxylin to a watch-glass of distilled water.
