Hi Kev,

We've caught a few of these guys (S. Scotia Sea, betw 0 & 300m) and I'm not
sure who it is. Pretty sure it's a pandaeid, possibly Neoturris pileata or
Zanclonia weldoni but neither quite fits the description. They've got 4
slightly wide radial canals that are branched laterally and about 60
marginal tentacles over all. The tentacles appear hollow, do not occur in
clusters and have a pronounced spur at the base. No ocelli that I see
unless maybe in that 'spur'. Dunno' if you've got any ideas but I'd love to
hear 'em! Feel free to pass on to Cnidaria listserv w/the caveat that I've
only got shipboard mail (read small, infrequent messages).
