discussion
Remarks. Apparently, there is a mistake in the labels of Z. parvula in Svoboda & Stepanjants (2001). What is labeled Monocaulus microrhiza seems to correspond to Z. parvula and what is labeled M. parvula to a species of Corymorpha, perhaps C. microrhiza.
distribution
Distribution. Circum-Antarctic (Stepanjants 1979). In the Ross Sea, known from McMurdo Sound (Hickson & Gravely 1907; Ritchie 1913; Dayton et al. 1970) and off Cape Royds (Ritchie 1913).
