Remarks. Rossella antarctica (as Rossella dubia (Schulze, 1887)) is known from a single report off Chile; to the south of Puerta Bueno, in Patagonia (51°27'30" S; 74°03'00” W, RV Challenger, station 310), from a depth of 410 fathoms (= 731.5 m) (Schulze, 1887). The distribution of this species includes Antarctica, southern South America and (doubtfully) off the Azores, in a depth range of 8 to 2000 m (Tabachnick, 2002).
