Type locality: off Grenada, Caribbean (12°03’N, 61°49’W). See: Halpern (1970); Sumida et al . (2001: 26–28, figs. 9a–E); Benavides-Serrato et al . (2011). Occurrence: Atlantic, in the west from North Carolina (Gray et al . 1968) southwards to Northern Brazil (Halpern 1970) and in the east from the Rockall Trough (Gage et al . 1983) south to the Gulf of Guinea (Koehler 1914b), including the archipelagos of the Azores, Canaries and Cape Verde (Koehler 1909, Grieg 1932). Depth: 229– 2,910 m (A.M. Clark & Downey 1992); AZO: 1,095 –1,740 m (Koehler 1909, 1921a). Habitat: muddy to sandy substrates (Koehler 1909); found also on Lophelia coral reefs (Gray et al . 1968). Remarks: the highly variable Plinthaster dentatus was described under several different names through the years (see Halpern 1970). For example, Perrier (1885c) described a new species Pentagonaster grandis based on specimens collected by Talisman in NW Africa and the Azores. Soon after, Sladen (1889) change the name of this species to Pentagonaster perrieri , as it could be confused with another goniasterid from the Australian waters known at the time as Tosia grandis . Later, Farran (1913) proposed to synonymised P. perrieri with the West Atlantic species P . dentatus , but the synonymy was only formally accepted in 1970, after the extensive review by Halpern. : 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 90, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4639.1, http://zenodo.org/record/3342161 : {"references": ["Perrier, M.
