Remarks. This species was described based on a single specimen collected in the Philippines without a specific locality ( Carter, 1877). Further records include a specimen collected E of Cebu Island, Philippines ( Galathea Expedition station 423) in 810 m ( Lévi, 1964), one in Little Ki Island, west of Papua New Guinea ( Reiswig & Wheeler, 2002) and records in New Caledonia (22º49’00” S; 167º12’00” E) at 390–395 m by Lévi & Lévi (1982). In Chile this species has been recorded only in the Nazca ridge, by the RV Professor Shtockman, station 1957 (24°56’30” S to 24º55'36” S; 88°31’36” W to 88º31'48” W) at a depth of 350– 330 m ( Tabachnick, 1990). This species was registered again by Parin et al. (1997) from material obtained in the expeditions of the Institute of Oceanology of the Russian Academy of Sciences at the Sala y Gomez and Nazca Ridges seamounts.
