Brookula pfefferi Powell, 1951 (Fig. 9) ? Cyclostrema decussatum Pelseneer, 1903: 19, pl. 5, fig. 48. Brookula pfefferi Powell, 1951: 104, pl. 5, fig. 8. Brookula rossiana Dell, 1990: 102, fig. 169. Brookula sinusbreidensis Numanami & Okutani, 1991: 38, figs 2–6. Brookula delli Numanami, 1996: 55, figs 30A–E. Holotype of B. pfefferi (NHM 1961.368). Type locality: Atlantic Ocean, South Georgia, off mouth of Stromness Harbour (54°04’S 36°27’W – 53°58’S 36°26’W), 155– 178 m. OD. Material examined: 40 specimens (ZSM Mol 20021687), Weddell Sea sector of the Antarctic Peninsula (63°01.10’S 61°09.10’W), 311–365 m, ANT XVII/3 (EASIZ 3). Remarks: This is the only species for which numerous specimens were available. The shell morphology of B. pfefferi is sufficiently described in Absalão et al. (2001) and Zelaya et al. (2006) but at least a first preliminary (excluding the ctenidia) overview of the external bauplan of the species may be given here (Fig. 9). Radula data were provided by Zelaya et al. (2006).
