See: A.M. Clark (1981); A.M. Clark & Downey (1992). Occurrence: Atlantic; in the west from south of Nova Scotia to Delaware (Sladen 1889); in the east from the Rockall Trough (Gage et al. 1983) southwards to South Africa (Clark 1981) and on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, from the Reykjanes Ridge (South of Iceland; Dilman 2006) south to the Charlie-Gibbs Fracture Zone (Dilman 2008) and the Azores (Perrier 1894); also reported off the River Plate, South America (Sladen 1889).

Remarks: Perrier (1885c, 1894) described the deep-sea asteroid Pectinaster filholi based on the material collected by Talisman, which included the only known specimen from Azorean waters (sta 126, 1883: 38°37’N, 28°20’46”W, 1,258 m), the same specimen re-examined later by A.M. Clark & Downey (1992).
