Abstract

Sinularia polydactyla (Ehrenberg, 1834) is re-described and a lectotype assigned. This led to examination of related material from various Indo-Pacific regions. Consequently, Sinularia levi sp. n. is described from Eilat, Israel (Gulf of Aqaba, northern Red Sea) and Sinularia compressa Tixier-Durivault, 1945 and Sinularia candidula Verseveldt and Benayahu, 1983 are synonymized with Sinularia polydactyla. Additional specimens identified in the literature as Sinularia polydactyla are provisionally reassigned to other taxa.

摘要

重新描述了多指软珊瑚（Sinularia polydactyla (Ehrenberg, 1834)）并指定了一个选模标本。这促使对来自印度-太平洋不同地区的相关材料进行研究。因此，描述了来自以色列埃拉特（亚喀巴湾，红海北部）的新物种——纤细软珊瑚（Sinularia levi sp. n.），并将1945年的压缩软珊瑚（Sinularia compressa Tixier-Durivault）和1983年的白色软珊瑚（Sinularia candidula Verseveldt and Benayahu）归为多指软珊瑚的同物异名。文献中鉴定为多指软珊瑚的其他标本被临时重新归入其他分类单元。
