Radioles: 11 (13) pairs, narrow flanges (Figures 8 E, I), pinnules long, of similar length throughout radiole, RT= medium­sized [9 pinnules] (Figures 8 E, I). Radiolar skeleton composed of 2 rows of cells (Figure 8 H), continued into pinnules. BrL= small, insertion not exposed beyond collar (Figures 8 A–C). DL= 3 times longer than wide, without a discernable longitudinal ridge (Figures 8 F–G). VL= rounded, as long as wide, about one half of the DL length. VRA= 4 pairs, the inner one about one quarter of the BrCL, medium about one half of the BrCL, the distal one about the same length of the BrCL, the remainder about one half of the BrCL (Figure 8 F).

Neuropodia: 1 row of 10­14 acicular uncini per torus, MF= 4, covering three quarters of the MF length, teeth above MF unequal in size, basal tooth bigger than teeth in distal rows, hood present, handles long (Figures 9 G–H). GR2= narrow, of same width around the segment.</p><p><i>Abdomen</i>: AS = 29. Anterior segments: 2 transverse rows of 8–9 elongate, narrowly hooded chaetae (Figures 9 I–J), chaetae from the upper row 50% shorter than chaetae in lower row; 13–16 uncini per torus (Figure 9 L), MF= 2–3, covering one half of the MF length, teeth above MF equal in size, breast rectangular, well developed, main fang not extending beyond breast, handles absent (Figure 9 M). Posterior segments: 5 modified, elongate, narrowly hooded chaetae (Figure 9 K); 4–6 modified uncini per torus, MF= 7–8, covering three quarters of the MF length, teeth above MF equal in size, breast rectangular, poorly developed, main fang not extending beyond breast, handles absent (Figure 9 N).

The two species have medium­sized radiolar tips, but in <i>C. johnstonae</i> radioles bear narrow flanges (broad in <i>C. diazi</i>), and the anterior peristomial ring lobe and branchial lobes are not exposed beyond the collar (exposed in <i>C. diazi</i>). <i>Chone letterstedti</i> (Kinberg, 1867) described from Cape of Good Hope, South Africa (SMNH 576, holotype) and <i>Chone reayi</i> McIntosh, 1916 from Ireland are similar to <i>C. johnstonae</i> in that the entire length of the mid­dorsal collar margins forms a broad gap; however, <i>C. letterstedti</i> and <i>C. reayi</i> have the posterior peristomial ring collar length 1.5 times longer than the first chaetiger (as long as first chaetiger in <i>C. johnstonae</i>); <i>C. johnstonae</i> has paleate chaetae with short­sized mucro (medium­sized mucro in <i>C. letterstedti</i> and <i>C. reayi</i>); <i>C. letterstedti</i> have short radiolar tips (medium­sized in <i>C. johnstonae</i> and <i>C. reayi</i>); and broad radiolar flanges (narrow in <i>C. johnstonae</i> and <i>C. reayi</i>).</p><p><i>Etymology</i>: This species is named after Ardis Johnston in recognition of her work and efforts in the collection of the Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ), Harvard University, and for the warm support and assistance during my stay in that institution.</p> |
