Summary: | Exspina typica Lang, 1968 (restricted synonymy and bibliography) Exspina typica Lang,1968: 188 –192, fig 117, plate 8f–g. Kudinova-Pasternak, 1970: 374 –375, 379, fig. 23. Kudinova- Pasternak, 1975; 222. Kudinova-Pasternak & Pasternak, 1978: 183, fig.7. Sieg, 1979: 189 –190, fig.1. Thurston et al., 1987: 11 –15, fig.1. Larsen, 2005; 260. Remarks. A very charismatic and distinctive abyssal species, which has been linked to a possible symbiotic relationship with holothurians such as Amperima rosea, Deima validum and Oneirophanta mutabilis (Thurston et al 1987). Formerly part of the Family Leptognathiidae sensu Sieg, 1973, and latterly in the sub-family Leptognathiinae (Anarthruridae) it was excluded after a phylogenetic analysis (Larsen & Wilson 2002). It is widely distributed in the world’s oceans (Thurston et al. 1987) including the Kurile-Kamchatka Trench, 2400–4829 metres (Kudinova-Pasternak 1970) but has not been recorded in the present study. ... : Published as part of Bird, Graham J, 2007, Family incertae cedis *, pp. 121-149 in Zootaxa 1599 on page 143, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.178710 ... |
