Echiodon drummondii Thompson, 1837 View in CoL
An Atlantic pearlfish, Carapidae ( Fig. 3C View Figure 3 ), was collected on 25 Nov 2019 during the EVHOE survey, using a bottom trawl. It was collected in the Celtic Sea (southern Ireland), at Station X 0558 (50.4339 / 50.4166 °N, 8.5809 / 8.6151 °W), at 127-128 m depth. The fresh specimen measured 268 mm TL, 28 mm HL and weighed 9.6 g. This specimen was preserved for osteology by Nalani Schnell and a tissue sample was preserved under No. BPS-4270. Recorded by T. Richard and N. Goascoz. A specimen, 262 mm TL, was previously recorded on 16 Apr 2006 from southern Finistère ( Iglésias, 2009b). The species is rarely recorded because its slender body usually slips through fishing gear GoogleMaps .
