Distribution.
Agulhas Bank, from Storms River to Cape Point;
39–217 m
(living
101–217 m
).
Notes.
Living specimens collected subsequent to
Herbert (
1987
c)
show that the
radula
lacks an elongate, cuspless latero-marginal plate (
Fig.
10
E, F). The species cannot thus be referred to
Spectamen
. The animal has four epipodial tentacles on each side, the first and last of which are larger, a pattern similar to that of
Zetela semisculpta
.
As
a result I refer the species to
Zetela
.
