Billardia intermedia Blanco, 1967c Remarks: Vervoort (1972) was not able to distinguish his specimen of Billardia subrufa (Jäderholm, 1904a) from Blanco’s Billardia intermedia based solely on characteristics of the hydrotheca, since his specimen lacked the gonotheca. Because Blanco’s description of Billardia intermedia was based on a single colony, Vervoort (1972) sugested that Billardia intermedia Blanco, 1967c could be a young specimen or aberrant colony of Billardia subrufa (Jäderholm, 1904a). Distribution in South America: polyp—Atlantic Ocean, at 56.40ºS 56.98ºW in Bahía Esperanza (Blanco 1967c, 1994a). Habitat: polyp—at 140m depth (Blanco 1967c).
