Nauticaris marionis Spence Bate 1888

Description

Nauticaris marionis Spence Bate, 1888

Known from several sub-Antarctic areas: Marion Island (Spence Bate 1888), Prince Edward Island (Branch et al. 1991; Pakhomov et al. 2000); Crozet and Kerguelen Islands (Ledoyer 1979); Auckland and Campbell Islands (Chilton 1909; Stephensen 1927), Snares Islands (Fenwick 1978), as well as off Tasmania (Poore 2004) and southern New Zealand (Yaldwyn & Webber 2011). Davie (2002) mentions the species from the Australian Antarctic Territory, but no substantiating records could be traced and the species is herein not considered to occur south of the Antarctic Polar Front. Also recorded from Patagonia and the Falkland Islands, but according to Holthuis (1952) these records refer to the closely related Nauticaris magellanica. It should be noted that considerable rostral differences are noted in the material from Tasmania by Poore (2004) and it cannot be discounted that a species complex is involved. Benthic, 20–256 m depth. Synonyms: Hippolyte stewarti Thomson, 1889; Merhippolyte australis Hodgson, 1902.
