Treatment

Paraleptognathia bisetulosa Dojiri & Sieg, 1997 View in CoL

Material examined: none.

Distribution: East Pacific Ocean, California, Santa Maria Basin, off Purisima Point, 34° 41.40´N 120° 57.90´W, 410 m.

Remarks: due to mailing problems (new U.S. regulations) no material was available for this study. This species was poorly described by Dojiri & Sieg (1997) and can be easily distinguished from other Paraleptognathia by the presence of two spiniform setae on merus of pereopod 1; this is a unique character state for Paraleptognathia .
