Pseudostichopus occultatus Marenzeller 1893

Description

Erroneous— Pseudostichopus occultatus Marenzeller, 1893 Reports for the Azores:

non Pseudostichopus occultatus Marenzeller, 1893 — $ Hérouard 1902: 14–15, pl. 2, figs. 4–14 [misidentified P. peripatus]; Nobre 1938: 156–157 [based on Hérouard 1902]; García-Diez et al. 2005: 51 [based on Hérouard 1902].

Type locality: Mediterranean Sea.

See: O’Loughlin & Ahearn (2005: 173–174); Mecho et al. (2014: 288–289, figs. 8A–D).

Occurrence: Mediterranean Sea, reported also from Cape Finisterre, Galicia (NE Atlantic; O’Loughlin & Ahearn 2005).

Depth: 363– 2,250 m (O’Loughlin & Ahearn 2005, Mecho et al. 2014).

Habitat: mud (Marenzeller 1893).

Remarks: Hérouard (1902) reported Pseudostichopus occultatus based on the material collected by Princesse Alice at two stations in Azorean waters (sta 527: 38°08’00”N, 23°15’45”W; sta 650: 36°54’00”N, 20°46’15”W). Later, Hérouard (1923) transferred these specimens to two newly described species P. lapidus (sta 527) and P. marenzelleri (sta 650). Both species are considered synonyms of P. peripatus.
