Oedicerina sp. indet.

Material examined.

1 incomplete female; NHMUK 2014. 402, Discovery Stn 7845: north-eastern Atlantic, off the coast of Western Sahara: 23°50.5'N 17°05.9'W - 23°51.0'N 17°05.4'W, 24 March 1972, BN 2.4, 947-958 m.

Remarks.

Only the head and pereonites 1-2 are present. Coxae 1-2 bear long setae along the distal margins. The animal appears similar to Oedicerina ingolfi , but as a result of incompleteness it is impossible to attribute it to any species.
