Remarks. This recently described species is small (up to 16 mm), lacks anal teeth, has 15 tentacles, posterior extensions on the radial plates only, tables with 3 cross-beams, highly branched rosettes in the tentacles, and was found deeper (57–58 m) than Phyrella species. The species does not appear to be attributable to Phyrella (= Thyonidiella ) and awaits phylogenetic study; we provisionally assign it to Phyllophorus sensu lato for nomenclatural purposes.
