Habitat. Previously reported in bottoms of mud, sand, shells and corals ( A. Milne-Edwards & Bouvier 1900; Forest 1963) and on muddy sand, sandy mud and fine sand ( d’Udekem d’Acoz 1999).
The species was reported inhabiting gastropod shells of Trochus ( A. Milne-Edwards & Bouvier 1900) , Aporrhais ? senegalensis Gray and Nassa sp. ( Forest 1955). All our specimens were without a shell.
Distribution. Scattered localities in the eastern Atlantic: Bay of Biscay, Cape Bojador ( Morocco), Mauritania, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Gabon, Angola, Azores ( d’Udekem d’Acoz 1999) and the Mediterranean Sea ( Froglia 2010). Serrano et al. (2006) reported this species from the Cantabrian shelf. Bathymetric distribution is from 130 m ( d’Udekem d’Acoz 1999) down to 380–400 m depth ( Forest 1963: 628). Our material was collected at 306 m and 332–344 m depth.
