GENUS
ALAINIUS
BABA, 1991
Remarks
: This genus, created by
Baba (1991)
for a species of galatheid from
New Caledonia
(
Alainius crosnieri
Baba, 1991
), is, as far as we can determine, known only from that region.
Clark & O’Shea (2001)
reported a species of this genus (as
Alainius
sp.
) from the vent system of the Kermadec Ridge,
New Zealand
. To our knowledge, no specimens were collected.
