Additional material: 9 females, body length 2.10–2.30 mm, collected in the South Atlantic from the equator to about 41 ºS between 05ºW–09ºE at depths from 4469 to 5395 m and 6 females, body length 2.00– 2.28 mm, found in the Southern Ocean between about 58 º– 65 ºS and 24 º– 51 ºW at depths from 2965 to 4748 m. Type locality. South Atlantic (16 º 18 ’S 05º 27 ’E). Description. Female. Body length 2.10–2.47 mm. Prosome 2.8–3.3 times as long as urosome (Fig. 1 A–B). Rostrum absent (Fig. 1 C–D). Cephalosome and pedigerous somite 1 and pedigerous somites 4 and 5 separate; posterior corners as short rounded lobes in lateral view, obtuse triangular in dorsal view (Fig. 1 F–G).
