Holotype.

Red Sea • ♀; Gulf of Aden, M 5 / 2 MINDIK exped., FS Meteor stat. M 5 / 2-268 - Kn; 13 ° 11.2 ' N, 47 ° 10.9 ' E to 13 ° 10.7 ' N, 47 ° 09.2 ' E [13.18666, 47.18166; 13.17833, 47.15333]; 1654–1686 m depth; 13 February 1987; Ute Mühlenhardt-Siegel, leg.; body preserved in 70 % EtOH, legs mounted on a permanent slide; ZMH - K- 038059.

Remarks.

Mühlenhardt-Siegel (1996 a) designated one juvenile as paratype (same data as the holotype); however, the publication does not provide a collection number. This specimen was not found in the ZMH - K collections; thus, the paratype is considered lost.

Diagnosis.

Distribution.

Red Sea 1654–1686 m depth.
