( Fig. 13l View FIGURE 13 )

Material examined. ANT XV/3: 48-154, one colony, c. 150 mm high.

Ecology and distribution. Reported at depths from 96 (Peña Cantero 2009, as Halecium incertus ) to 1019 m ( Peña Cantero 2008, as Halecium incertus ); material examined at 569– 583 m. Circum-Antarctic species ( Peña Cantero 2014b) found in rare occasions; present finding constitutes a new addition for the Weddell Sea fauna.
