Xanthias inornatus ( Rathbun 1898) View in CoL

( Fig. 41C, D View FIGURE 41 )

Actaea inornata Rathbun, 1898: 583 [Type locality: 6º59’30”S, 34º47’00”W, off Cabedelo   GoogleMaps , Paraíba, Brazil, 36.5 m].

Size of largest female: cl 12 mm, cw 15.5 mm.

Comparative material examined. None.

Distribution. Curaçao and Brazil (Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Pernambuco and Trindade Island) ( Rathbun, 1930; Oliveira 1945; Coelho & Ramos 1972; Coelho et al. 1986; Coelho Filho & Coelho 1996). Xanthias inornatus has not been recorded from Trindade previously.

Ecological notes. Rare. Found in calcareous algae between 12 and 75 m. In Trindade, X. inornatus ( Fig. 41C, D View FIGURE 41 ) was found near rocks in sandy bottom at 12 m.

Remarks. Rathbun (1898; 1930) mentioned that the female holotype of X. inornatus was captured “off Cape St. Roque” [Rio Grande do Norte], Brazil, 6º59’30”S, 34º47’00”W. However, these geographic coordinates actually refer to off Cabedelo, Paraíba, Brazil, which, therefore, is the correct type locality of X. inornatus .
