, similarities in spine articulation morphology and arrangement are striking. In fact, large spine articulations with thick dorsal and ventral lobes encompassing a conspicuously large muscle opening, arranged in a dorso-proximalwards receding row on the elevated distal portion of the LAPs are a highly distinctive feature which is not found in any other ophiacanthid LAP

. There are admittedly strong differences between these LAPs and those of its congeners in terms of size of tentacle notch, connection between outer surface and ventral lobe of spine articulations and size and shape of the ridge on the inner side. These differences might, in fact, warrant separation at the generic level. On the basis of the striking similarities in spine articulation morphology and arrangement, however, the present LAPs are here considered as a new species of
