Southwest Pacific: 1090451, 11/898, [ 61.05°S 114.7°W], 2824–2891 m; ex. 1090455, 11/919, [ 68.392°S 114.483°W], 1007– 1098 m; ex. 1090456, 11/920, [ 68.692°S 114.2°W], 2196–2562 m; ex. 1090458, 11/930, [ 70.142°S 109.808°W], 1391 m; 1090467, 38/2, [ 64.108°S 150.077°W], 1500 m; 1090482, 38/7, [ 57.492°S 149.322°W], 600 m.

Remarks: A relatively uncommon species known from scattered records, mainly from tropical regions of all the world’s oceans, including a doubtful record from the Mediterranean Sea ( Zelickman 2005). It seems to be most

common in depths of more than 200–500 m to about 1000 m, but has also been found in depths of 1000–4000 m ( Vinogradov et al. 1982 /96). There are only two previous records of this species from the Southern Ocean; from the Southeast Atlantic Sector, near Bouvet Island ( Wagler 1926) and from the Eastern Indian Ocean Sector, near the Davis Sea ( Vinogradov 1962). Thus, the above are new records for the Antarctic Zone of the Southwest Atlantic and Pacific Sectors.
