03AC8797FFF0F122FF53C924FB8BFEC6.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Previous molecular phylogenetic analysis using multiple markers demonstrated the affinity of this species to Cucumariidae (Yamana et al. 2019), but its affinity to the Psolidae Burmeister, 1937, cannot be ruled out. Morphological analysis in the same report (Yamana et al. 2019) also strongly demonstrated that this species is a member of Cucumariidae as defined by Panning (1949), within the subfamily Colochirinae Panning, 1949, characterized by an external layer of cup-like ossicles which are sometimes reduced to x-shaped deposits or reduced cups / baskets. Another subfamily of Cucumariidae, the Cucumariinae Ludwig, 1894 lack cup-like ossicles. However, such ossicles are often present in the related family Psolidae, although nearly always accompanied by scales or scale-like plates. Furthermore, the ventral surface of the members of Psolidae is usually differentiated by the presence of a sole or sole-like structure used for adherence to substrates. The body wall of the species described herein comprises an external layer of unique x-framed hourglass ossicles. This supports our tentative inclusion of the new genus in Colochirinae. Meanwhile, of the other subfamilies included in Cucumariidae [sensu (Panning 1949)], only Cucumariinae, which lacks cups / baskets of any form, remains. Other subfamilies also lacking cuplike ossicular deposits (viz. Thyoninae, Sclerodactylinae, and Ypsilothuriinae) have long since been moved to other families or elevated to full family rank. The recently erected subfamilies by Thandar (2017) (i. e. Thyonininae and Hemithyoninae) in Thyonidae [(sensu Smirnov (2012)], also lack cup-like deposits. Within the Colochirinae, Panning (1949) included seven genera with one genus preoccupied [i. e. Ludwigia Reiffen, 1901, as pointed out by Mortensen (1925)]. Since then, many other genera have been referred to or included within this subfamily. We carefully searched through all available literature and are thus positive that none of the currently included species in the Colochirinae have the characteristics hourglass-shaped ossicles we describe herein.	en	Yamana, Yusuke, Thandar, Ahmed S., Hayashibara, Takeshi, Setiamarga, Davin H.

Body form straight, posteriorly tapering. Live coloration yellow. dorsal podia short, papillae-like, restricted to radii in two longitudinal rows; ventral podia (pedicels), retractile, restricted to radii in three apparently zig-zag rows, absent anteriorly. In preserved state, anterior end expanded and posterior conspicuously contracted. Body wall soft, thin in anterior (<0.5 mm), thick in posterior (> 1.0 mm); preserved coloration pure white (Fig. 2 A, B); contracted length 62 mm, width 17 mm (see Table 1). Tentacles 10, dendritic, equal length, all tentacles arranged in a single circle (Fig. 2 F), each with two tufts, subdivided basally (Fig. 2 F’). Body form cylindrical, with five oral valves (Fig. 2 C) and five radially arranged anal teeth, each accompanied by a pair of anal papillae lying in a circle outside of the anal teeth (Fig. 2 D). Tentacles and introvert are of same coloration as the adjoining body wall. Calcareous ring low, stout, radial and interradial elements compact, not forming a mosaic and lacking posterior prolongations (Fig. 3). All plates sagittate, each with a posterior depression and anterior projection. The mid-ventral element R 1 and adjoining two interradial elements IR 1 and IR 2 not fused, both IR 1 and IR 2 narrower than RI, both with sharper anterior projection (Fig. 3) but mid-dorsal interradial plate (IR 5) with deepest posterior depression. Retractor muscles originate from respective longitudinal muscle at 20 – 30 % of body length from anterior end, more anterior dorsally, and insert on anterior projection (Fig. 3) of corresponding radial plate. Polian vesicle single, mid-ventral in position, in line with RI, fusiform in shape, narrowing distally (distal end 1 / 6 – 1 / 3 of vesicle length); stone canal also single, mid-dorsal in position, in line with IR 5; madreporite brain- / coralshaped, on the left side of anterior portion of the dorsal mesentery (Table 1, Fig. 2 G, H). Gonadal stolon attached anteriorly, gonad in two tufts, one on each side of dorsal mesentery, most tubules short, branched. Respiratory trees paired, larger tree situated on right side of body cavity, reaching about half body length. Smaller tree situated on left side, length approximately 1 / 5 – 1 / 4 of the right one. Small intestine extends from mid-dorsal region in line with IR 5, turns towards the right dorsal interradius in line with IR 4, passes along IR 4 to about 3 / 4 the body length and then extends anteriad to middle of body along interradius (IR 5) before opening into the cloaca. Body wall ossicles as an external layer of small (22 – 35 µm) x-framed hourglass ossicles (Fig. 4 F, G, Table 2) and an inner layer of sparsely distributed, large (123 – 154 µm) dendriform rods (Fig. 4 F, G, Table 2), sometimes forming delicate plates. Buttons, thick plates, x-shaped ossicles and / or rosettes absent. Tentacle ossicles mostly large, thick rods (55 – 643 µm), distally branched or perforated by few small holes (Fig. 4 A, Table 2). Peri-oral ossicles, sparse, occurring as small (39 – 49 µm) typical, simple cups and large (169 – 369 µm) spinous rods (Fig. 4 B, Table 2). Ossicles of pharyngeal villi as large (78 – 251 µm) rods, with few distal perforations and / or branches, sometimes also with a medial third branch / arm (Fig. 4 C, Table 2). Introvert ossicles also as small (26 – 31 µm), x-framed hourglasses (Fig. 4 D, Table 2). Oral valve ossicles as mostly small (24 – 34 µm) hourglasses and medium to large (101 – 358 µm), often distorted or rod-derived supporting plates at tip of valve (Fig. 4 E, Table 2). Ossicles of dorsal podia mostly small (24 – 34 µm) hourglasses and small to large (85 – 175 µm), irregular supporting plates at tip (Fig. 4 H, Table 2). Ossicles of ventral podia, mostly small (24 – 39 µm) hourglasses, medium-sized (57 – 149 µm) terminal supporting plates and large (451 – 514 µm) endplate (Fig. 4 I, Table 2). Peri-anal ossicles as small (16 – 32 µm) hourglasses. Anal papillae with medium-sized (85 – 175 µm), irregular supporting plates (Fig. 4 J, Table 2). Ossicles were also detected in the basal part of ovary as medium-sized (78 – 163 µm), distally branched spinous or dendriform rods (Fig. 4 K, Table 2). Variations in paratypes. Body form in life straight or slightly U-shaped, straight in preserved state. Contracted dimensions of the largest paratype (WMNH-INV- 2018 - 4) 69 mm x 24 mm (Table 1). All paratypes with 10 equal tentacles in a single circle (Fig. 2 F), each tentacle basally divided into two large tufts. Except for five small specimens (WMNH-INV- 2018 - 9 – 13), the posterior end of all specimens is strongly contracted. Polian vesicle always single, in RI, stone canal also single in IR 5. calcareous ring low, stout, without posterior prolongations; oral valves present. All specimens possess abundant x-framed hourglasses in body-wall, but simple cups and scarce spinous rods in perioral skin lacking in some individuals (Table 2). Hourglasses absent in the introvert of several specimens (Table 2). In all specimens dendriform rods sparser in ventral body wall. Gonadal tubules (Table 1) absent in some specimens (perhaps due to immaturity).
