Ophiocten centobi Paterson et al ., 1982 Reports for the Azores: Ophiocten centobi Paterson et al ., 1982 — $ St̂hr & Segonzac 2005: 286, 394–395. Type locality: Bay of Biscay (47°44’N, 08°21’W). See: Paterson et al . (1982: 119–121, figs. 6–7); St̂hr & Segonzac (2005). Occurrence: known only from the Bay of Biscay (Paterson et al . 1982) and in the vicinity of the deep-water hydrothermal systems on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge south of the Azores, such as Lucky Strike and Rainbow (St̂hr & Segonzac 2005). Depth: 1,680–2,837 m (AZO; St̂hr & Segonzac 2005). Habitat: coral and gravel detritic substrates (non-vent environments); also among mytilid bivalves, pteropod shells and Cynachira sponges (St̂hr & Segonzac 2005). Remarks: Ophiocten centobi was only known from the type material from the Bay of Biscay until St̂hr & Segonzac (2005) reported it from the vicinity of deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, south of the Azores. : Published as part of Madeira, Patrícia, Kroh, Andreas, Cordeiro, Ricardo, De, António M., Martins, Frias & Ávila, Sérgio P., 2019, The Echinoderm Fauna of the Azores (NE Atlantic Ocean), pp. 1-231 in Zootaxa 4639 (1) on page 51, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4639.1, http://zenodo.org/record/3342161 : {"references": ["Paterson, G.
