Material. 3 LV (plus 2 broken V), off South Georgia, F.F.S Walter Herwig cruise 68/1, station 7­1, 53°43.5’S, 41°47.8’W, 137m, date 28.1.1985, temperature 1.486°C, salinity 34.002 ‰, rocky substrate, ZMH K­ 33798. This material was studied (but not illustrated) by Hartmann (1989).

Distribution. Off South Georgia, Southern Ocean (Atlantic Sector), 137m.

Measurements (Fig. 4). LV, L 1.31–1.36mm, H 0.81–0.86mm

Description. LV globose­ovate in lateral view, anterior conspicuously more broadly rounded than posterior, not caudate, dorsal margin highly arcuate. Valve surface punctuated. Normal pore canals large, numerous, located among punctae, with very thin rim, and sensilla of variable length. No fringes or denticles present on the 3 subfossil LV. Calcified inner lamella fairly narrow; vestibules constricted. Hinge anterior and posterior elements with 4 well developed denticles and sockets. Nine adductor muscle scars present.
