Status McIntosh (1885) placed all his Challenger Hyalinoecia from worldwide occurrences as H. tubicola or as varieties of H. tubicola. This is not a tenable taxonomic viewpoint today. As he provided a name for the New Zealand Challenger Plateau of 'longibranchiata', recognizing a difference from what he termed 'the typical form' (of H. tubicola) it is appropriate to recognise H. tubicola longibranchiata as a full species. Orensanz (1990: 52) recognized H. tubicola longibranchiata as a subspecies while assigning another Challenger H. tubicola record (an unnamed var) from Atlantic South America to H. artifex Verrill from N. America. Modern authors (eg Bors et al 2012) treat H. longibranchiata as a full species. [details]
