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.
