REMARKS
The taxonomy of
Trianguloscalpellum regium
was recently reviewed (
Young 1998a: 28
). This species has been reported from all the oceans, but probably this distribution encompasses more than one species (
Young 1998a
). It is frequently recorded from the abyssal plain of the North Atlantic.
