PARATYPE

Paratype I. MBARI code T1141(2). Formalin fixation; paraffin cross sections. From description: "The fixed holotype, after being photographed through the dissecting microscope, was dehydrated in an ethanol series, embedded via xylene in paraffin, oriented for cross sectioning, and prepared as serial sections 15 ?m thick. Paratypes I and II were similarly prepared as paraffin cross and sagittal sections, respectively. Most of the serial sections were stained in Mayer’s hematoxylin and eosin, and a few were stained for acid mucopolysaccharides in 0.1% aqueous azure A."
