Morphologically consistent with Psychropotes semperiana Theel, 1882. The type locality of Psychropotes semperianais Atlantic (5°48'N; 14°20'W, 4500m depth) and we use the tentative name Psychropotes cf. semperianafor this material until we have a better understanding of genetic variation within the species including data from the type locality.  Ecology Observed moving on the seabed amongst polymetallic nodules. 2013-10-15 Remotely Operated Vehicle NHMUK, ZOO Adrian Glover, Helena Wiklund, Thomas Dahlgren, Maggie Georgieva 13.962791 UK Seabed Resources Ltd exploration claim UK- 1 -116.55093 0 7251 38 c 16 bec- 7 bf 9 - 4 c 2 b-b 862 - 5 da 460 ba 6 c 0 c 1 Other material
