Specimen notes
Supplementary remarks:
Although I have identified all these as Doodia media the Macauley Island population is rather unusual. Some of the characters, particularly in your No 86/K, as more suggestive of D. caudata. The narrow fertile segments with a lobe at the base are usually typical of this species (compare it with 84/K).
