Material examined: 2 ♀♀, in 70% ethanol, BPOT Station MT55 R 1,278 m depth,2011,state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, 36°54′24.68″W, 04°34′24.26″S ( MOUFPE 15958 View Materials ) GoogleMaps ; 2♀♀,in 70% ethanol, BPOT Station MT55 R 2,283 m depth, 2011, state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, 36°54′24.68″W, 04°34′24.26″S ( MOUFPE 20007 View Materials ) GoogleMaps .

Distribution and bathymetric range: The species has previously been found off the coast of the states of Rio de Janeiro, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul ( Andrade & Senna, 2020a) between 25 and 128 m depth. Here we report it for the continental slope of the state of Rio Grande do Norte at 278 and 283 m depth.

Remarks: This species was recently described with material from off the coasts of the Brazilian states of Rio de Janeiro, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul. The individuals found here agree with its original description although some subtle differences can be noticed such as setation patterns. This is the deepest and northernmost record of the species and its first record to northeastern Brazil.
