Distribution.
Agulhas Bank, southern Transkei to Cape Point, perhaps also KwaZulu-Natal;
100–350 m
(living
100–300 m
).
Notes.
The use of the term ‘holotype’ for the
SAMC
syntype
by
Giles & Gosliner (
1983
)
does not fit the criteria for designation of
lectotype
either by selection or inadvertent designation (
ICZN
, Art. 74.5), nor by inference of
holotype
(
ICZN
, Art. 74.6) because the original description clearly stated that there were two specimens.
