Editor's comment Berkeley & Berkeley, 1954 thought Sabella pacifica Fewkes, 1889 was a primary homonym to Sabella pacifici Grube (note the one letter difference which suffices to separate them according to ICZN Article 57.6; 'pacifici' is an invariant genitive, and 'pacifica' a feminine adjective) and they unnecessarily renamed it as Dodecaceria fewkesi. Due to a large geographic separation it seems best to follow Blake (1996:375 as D fewkesi) and keep D. fistulicola separate from D pacifica (usually reported as D. fewkesi). [details]Habitat Tubes are partly calcareous, but it is evident from the Berkeleys' (1954) article that the structure of a colony can be cut with a knife Chunks of tubes washed up are fancifully known as false brain coral. The Berkeleys (1954) wrote: "It builds colonies of calcareous tubes on rock faces in suitable localities on the east and west coasts of Vancouver Island between tide-marks. A sexual reproduction by autotomy followed by regeneration is common and colonies seem to result from a single individual by a repeated operation of this process. Individuals in a given colony are invariably of one sex. " [details]
