Description

Epimeria (Epimeriella) scabrosa (K.H. Barnard, 1930)

Epimeriella scabrosa K.H. Barnard, 1930: 378, fig. 43.

Epimeriella scabrosa – Coleman 2007: 58, fig. 33, map 15 (circle).

Body length

Up to 14 mm.

Distribution

Oates Coast, 329–366 m (K.H. Barnard 1930).

Remarks

Coleman (pers. com.) informed us that the specimen illustrated in the figure 33 of Coleman (2007) is drawn from the type series. De Broyer et al. (2007) mention imprecise records of E. scabrosa from the southern and eastern shelf of the Weddell Sea, but they might refer to its very close relative E. atalanta sp. nov.
