Material examined.
None.
Distribution.
Western Atlantic—
Bermuda
to
French Guiana
, including
Bahamas
, Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, and
Brazil
(
Amapá
, Pará,
Bahia
,
Espírito Santo
,
Rio de Janeiro
,
São Paulo
, Santa Catarina) (Verril 1922;

Remarks.
Previous records from the coast of
São Paulo
include São Sebastião (
Holthuis 1991
;
Dall’Occo
et al.
2007
—REVIZEE, st. 1129, São Sebastião,
24°55′S
44°33′W
,
605–621 m

, MZUSP 15252).
Nephropsis rosea
is found at great depths from
420 to 1,260 m
in mud or fine sand substrate, and it is not fished in
Brazil
, and considered rare (Silva
et al. 2
007; Santana
et al.
2016). We suggest that the absence of
N. rosae
,
N. agassizii
and
N. aculeata
in the material sampled herein is due to their restriction to waters deeper than
40 m
, where we did not concentrate our sampling efforts. Even though we sampled at depths of up to
130 m
, it was not enough to capture them.
