PR002-6 (54° 1.862′S, 037° 15.032′W), coralline encrusted bedrock/boulder with algal turf, 15–18 m, 1 paratype (NMW.Z.2015.008.0002), 19.11.2010. Description. Holotype posteriorly damaged, possibly incomplete, 1.47 mm long for 22 chaetigers. Paratype complete in 3 fragments, 2.04 mm for 14 chaetigers, possibly regenerating posteriorly; 1 segment removed for SEM, 1 segment removed for sequencing (failed). Maximum width measured both between segments, 0.57 mm (holotype) and 0.44 mm (paratype), and including chaetae, 1.2 mm (holotype) and 1.09 mm (paratype).
