Thouarella hilgendorfi: Versluys, 1906: 24 View in CoL –29, pl. 2, fig. 7.—Taylor, et al., 2013: 76–77 (synonymy, but no illustrations, Group 2).—Taylor & Roger, 2015: 193.

Thouarella (Euthouarella) hilgendorfi: Cairns & Bayer, 2009: 28 View in CoL .— Cairns, 2010: 417 –422, pl. 2, figs. 1D, 4–5 (complete synonymy and description).

Type and Type Locality. The holotype is deposited in the Zoologisches Museum, Berlin (2070). Type Locality: Tokyo Bay, 548 m.

Material Examined. EX 1605-L1-17, 16.134˚N, 146.082˚E ( northern Mariana Islands), 284 m, 8 May 2016, image only.

Remarks. This species was adequately described and figured by Cairns (2010) and is only known from images (no collected specimens) in this report, and thus will not be fully redescribed or figured herein. Cairns & Wirshing (2018) recently resurrected the subgenus Euthouarella for those species having their polyps arranged in pairs or whorls.

Distribution. A widespread species, occurring throughout the Indo-West Pacific and central Pacific, 164– 750 m.
