Type locality: Galapagos Rift , geothermal vents, Garden of Eden , 00°47.7′N , 86°07.7′W , 2482 m , Alvin dive 883, 24.i.1979 . Material examined: Holotype USNM 81804 , 40 + paratypes USNM 81805 from type locality; 3 spms, USNM 81806 , Galapagos Rift, geothermal vents, ‘Mussel bed’, 00°47.9′N , 86°09.2′W , 2493 m , Alvin dive 880, 21.i.1979 ; 2 spms, USNM 81807 , Galapagos Rift, geothermal vents, ‘Rose Garden’, 00°48,3′N , 86°13.5′W , 2447 m , Alvin Dive 983, 30.xi.1979 . Distribution: Galapagos Spreading Center , Guaymas Basin ( Pleijel, 2006 ) Remarks: The examined specimens are in too poor condition to assess the affinities of N. alvinae , and Blake’s (1985) original description does not indicate membership of Nereimyra . Until further specimens are available for complementary morphological and molecular studies we regard it as a nomen dubium .
