Please, correct Distephanus pulchra (Schiller) Ling and Takahashi, 1987 to Distephanus pulchra (Schiller) Ling & Takahashi, 1985. See in the algaebase correct year at https://www.algaebase.org/search/species/detail/?species_id=42760

This is Octactis octonaria (Ehrenberg) Hovasse 1964. All the mentioned species including O. pulchra should be in syn. with Dictyocha octonaria Ehrenberg, 1844, Distephanus octonarius (Ehrenb.) Haeckel 1887 and Distephanus pulchra (Schiller) Ling & Takahashi 1985 as well.
