[details]
Etymology Not stated, but the name for H. tuberculata may refer to tubercles (knobs) on each verticil spine as the Latin noun tuberculum refers to a swelling or lump. [details]
Taxonomy Kupriyanova et al (2015:296) "Hydroides tuberculata can be distinguished from H. kimberleyensis, H. rhombobula, H. uniformis and H. xishaensis by the presence of an enlarged dorsal verticil spine with external knob, while all verticil spines are equally sized and apparently smooth in the other nominal taxa. Hydroides tuberculata differs from H. perezi by the shape of the verticil spines, subtriangular in cross-section in H. tuberculata, but flat in H. perezi (ten Hove 1970; Imajima & ten Hove 1984). Additional studies are needed to determine whether H. perezi and H. tuberculata are separate species." [details]
Type locality Urata (beach), Tanegashima (island), Southern Japan. 30.8233° 131.0409° [details]
