Identification reference. Bird & Holdich (1989). Distribution records from the AFEN, BIOFAR & BIOICE surveys. Recorded from only three BIOICE stations in the Iceland Basin at depths 1070–1780 m. Distribution elsewhere. From North Feni Ridge around to the Malin Slope, 903–1600 m (Bird & Holdich 1988). Remarks.

It has been recorded in the AFEN study area but only from the earlier SMBA ... : Published as part of Bird, Graham J, 2010, Tanaidacea (Crustacea, Peracarida) of the North-east Atlantic: the Agathotanaidae of the AFEN, BIOFAR and BIOICE projects, with a description of a new species of Paragathotanais Lang, pp. 1-22 in Zootaxa 2730 on page 12, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.200143 ...
