( Fig. 5b )

Notomastus precocis Hartman, 1960: 139 ; 1969: 403.— Fauchald 1972: 251.—García-Garza & de León-González 2011: 44 ; 2015: 187.

Type material: * Holotype ( LACM-AHF POLY 0416 ).

Type locality: Eastern Pacific , USA, Santa Catalina Gulf, Sta. 2848, 1400 -2000, in sandy silt .

Records: Mexico, Baja California, Jalisco, Nayarit in the slope zone ( Fauchald 1972) .

Remarks: Notomastus precocis was described with the last three thoracic chaetigers with capillaries and hooded hooks on neuropodia, so we can infer that the holotype was described in a juvenile stage.
