NEMATOCARCINUS PRODUCTUS BATE, 1888 View in CoL

Type locality: Philippines, off Luzon, H. M. S. Challenger, sta. 205; 16°42′N, 119°22′E; 1920 m (1050 fathoms); from blue mud. –off Banda Island , sta. 195; 04°21′S, 129°07′E; 2602 m (1425 fathoms), blue mud. – Japan, near Yokohama, sta. 237; 34°37′N, 140°32′E; 3429 m (1875 fathoms). –off the New Hebrides, sta. 176; 18°30′S, 173°52′E; 2652 m (1450 fathoms) GoogleMaps .

Known range: Chace (1986), because of taxonomic uncertainty concerning the known populations of Nematocarcinus productus and the similarity of the species to N. ensifer in the Atlantic, noted that ‘until... populations from different parts of the world, particularly the eastern Pacific, are carefully compared, the distributional limits of N. productus must remain indeterminate.’

Occurrence at vents or seeps: Kanesu-no-se Bank, Japan (see below).

Material: The report of Ohta et al. (1995) does not mention collections.

Remarks: Ohta et al. (1995) reported observations of this species from the south-western flank of Kanesuno-se Bank at 1000 to 1220 m during Shinkai 2000 dive 771. See our comments on the genus Nematocarcinus .
