Leptochiton alveolus View in CoL (M. Sars MS, Lovén, 1846)
Chiton alveolus M. Sars MS, Lovén 1846: 159.
The species was subsequently reported from the following localities:
specimen number unknown; from Spain, Galicia, west of Cabo Finisterre (43°01'N, 09°37'W), 2018 m ( Locard 1898) [locality data kindly provided by Virginie Héros, France]
1 specimen from the Bay of Biscay (44°10'N, 04°16'W), 2170 m; 1 specimen from the Bay of Biscay (46°27'N, 10°26'W) 4825 m; 1 specimen from the Bay of Biscay (44°10'N, 05°15'W), 1870–2000 m ( Kaas 1979)
Remarks: There are several more abyssal records of Leptochiton alveolus in the literature, but the present
author divided the data into Atlantic records ( L. alveolus ) and IndoPacific records ( L. belknapi , see below),
following the opinions of Kaas & Van Belle (1987).
