Anachalypsicrinus nefertiti A. M. Clark 1973

Description

Anachalypsicrinus nefertiti A.M. Clark, 1973 Reports for the Azores:

Anachalypsicrinus nefertiti (A.M. Clark, 1973) — $ Roux 1980: 191, pl. 1, figs. 1–3; Roux 1985: 481–482, figs. 2–3; Tyler & Zibrowius 1992: 222, figs. 3h, 5 b–c, g; Mironov et al. 2014: 117.

Type locality: off W Ireland (53°11’12”N– 53°11’36”N, 20°05’06”W– 20°03’54”W).

See: A.M. Clark (1973: 269–270, figs. 1a–e, 2, pl. 1, figs. a–d).

Occurrence: Northeast Atlantic, from off S–SW Ireland south to the Azores and east to the Bay of Biscay and off Morocco (Tyler & Zibrowius 1992).

Depth: 2,000–2,810 m (Mironov et al. 2014); AZO: 2,200–2,810 m (Roux 1980).

Habitat: hard substrata (Tyler & Zibrowius 1992).

Remarks: Roux (1980) identified Anachalypsicrinus nefertiti in deep-sea photographs taken by the project Famous in the south of the Azores (36°49’36”N– 36°57’30”N, 33°05′W– 33°16’30”W, 2,220 –2,810 m). The abyssal depths and the type of substrata may account for the paucity of reports throughout its known geographical distribution.
