Remarks. Material included here comprises a huge amount of small-sized hydrothecae, with 100-150 µm in diameter of aperture, and provided with striae. The material could correspond, at least in part, to F. antarcticum. However, in agreement with Peña Cantero et al. (2004) and Marques et al. (2011), the small-sized Filellum from Antarctic waters are not identifiable in the absence of coppinia, and therefore it precludes a proper identification of material examined here.
Ecology and distribution. Material examined was collected at depths between 62 and 598 m.
