REMARKS The specimens from both stations have shells similar to that described by Hoek (1883: 143) with the carina very convex ( Fig. 28 ). Altiverruca obliqua was redescribed and discussed by Young (1998b: 46) . It was first described from off Southwestern Spain ( Hoek 1883 ) and subsequently recorded from the Azores region ( Young 1998b , c) from depths between 1003 to 2788 m . These new records agree with the previous distribution. They were collected south of the Azores Archipelago at depths of 945 and 1000 m .
