Chauliopleona cf armata (Hansen, 1913) (restricted synonymy and bibliography) Leptognathia armata Hansen, 1913: 80 –81, plate VIII figs 1 a–f. Leptognathia armata Hansen, 1913: Kudinova-Pasternak, 1970: 353. Kudinova-Pasternak, 1984: 829 [uncertain synonymies]. Chauliopleona armata (Hansen, 1913: Guerrero-Kommritz, 2005: 1188 –1191. See Sieg (1983) for complete synonymy and bibliography up to that date. Remarks. Apart from numerous records from other areas in the Pacific and Atlantic (but see above) this species has been recorded from the Sea of Japan at shelf to bathyal depths, 100–2220 metres (Kudinova-Pasternak 1984) and abyssal depths, 3385–4895 metres from the Kurile-Kamchatka Trench (Kudinova-Pasternak 1970). The most likely candidate species for the shallow-water records is the recently described C. hansknechti, while the abyssal records may be attributable to either of the two putative species outlined below.
