Remarks.
The
Pseudotanais affinis
-group of species was discussed by
Bird & Holdich (1989a)
, who demonstrated that
P. affinis
sensu
stricto
is a cold-water species, recorded from off North
Greenland
, the Kara Sea, Davis Strait, the Norwegian Sea and the Faeroe-Shetland Channel, at depths between 40 and
2970 m
. The present records add nothing to that distribution.
