Galathea balssi .— Tirmizi & Javed, 1993 : 47 , fig. 21 (off Somali Republic , Mozambique Channel, and central part of Indian Ocean, 47–165 m ) (not Galathea balssi Miyake & Baba, 1967 ). Dubious identifications: Galathea orientalis .— Tirmizi, 1966 : 182 , figs 6–8 (Red Sea, South Arabian Sea, 29–100 m ). Galathea anepipoda .— Baba, 2005 : 74, 243 (Sagami Bay, Japan , 366–732 m , Kei Islands, 245 m ).— Dong & Li, 2010 : 2, fig. 1 (East China Sea, 106–110 m ) (possibly G. paleroi n.sp. ). Material examined . Mozambique . MAINBAZA, Stn CP3132, 25°11.24`S , 35°01.51’E , 101–102 m , 10 Abril 2009 : 1 ov. F 3.3 mm (MNHN-IU-2013-8306). Madagascar . ATIMO VATAE , Stn CP3512, 25°15'S , 47°17'E , 140–144 m , 29 April 2010 : 1 ov. F 3.4 mm (MNHN-IU-2010-4022).—Stn CP3620, 25°47'S , 46°02'E , 133–178 m , 15 May 2010 : 1 ov. F 3.2 mm (MNHN-IU- 2013-8307). Remarks . The specimens illustrated by Tirmizi & Javed (1993) , and identified as G. balssi , probably belong to G. anepipoda . Further analyses should confirm the identity of these specimens, as well as other material collected by Tirmizi (1966) , Baba (2005) and Dong & Li (2010) . The descriptions and illustrations provided by these authors suggest that they do not belong to G. anepipoda . The genetic divergence between G. anepipoda and G. balssi is quite large (13.1% COI) ( Tab. 1 ). Distribution . Western Indian Ocean from the Red Sea to Madagascar and Mozambique , 47– 165 m . The records from Japan and East China Sea should be revised.
