ALVINOCARIS BREVITELSONIS View in CoL KIKUCHI &

HASHIMOTO, 2000

Type locality: western Pacific Ocean , Mid-Okinawa Trough , 140 km W of Amami-Ohshima Island, Minami-Ensei Knoll, Depression C; 28°23.35′N, 127°38.38′E; 705 m. GoogleMaps

Known range: limited to the type locality.

Material: type locality; Marine Ecosystems Research Department, JMSTC, Shinkai 2000 dive 547; 3 June 1991; hydraulically driven suction sampler; NSMT-Cr 12454 (holotype, female), NSMT-Cr 12455 (allotype,

male), NSMT-Cr 12456 (paratypes, 1 male, 1 female), (non-types, 6 males) ( Kikuchi & Hashimoto, 2000).

Remarks: Some of the specimens upon which this species description was based (paratypes registered as NSMT-Cr 12456) apparently differ sufficiently from the type specimen to warrant their recognition as a new species of Alvinocaris (see A. dissimilis below).
