figs. 1-13, tab. 1. (25.iii.1980).Six species of Sertulariidae and five species of Plumulariidae were identified in collections of hydroids from estuaries of South Carolina. Sertularia exigua Allman, 1877, is synonymized with Dynamena cornicina McCrady, 1859, and Aglaophenia rigida Allman, 1877, is place in synonymy with A. trifida L. Agassiz, 1862. Aglaophenia trifida occurs in two distinct colony forms in estuaries of South Carolina, but the two variants are not regarded as separate taxa. Obelia marginata Allman, 1877, from the Atlantic Ocean and Campanularia marginata Bale, 1884, from Australia belong to the genus Thyroscyphus Allman, 1877. Thyroschyphus balei , new name, is proposed as a replacement name for the junior secondary homonym T. marginatus (Bale, 1884).Descriptor: Thyroscyphus balei
