Pseudopallene watsonae Staples 2005 View in CoL
Pseudopallene watsonae View in CoL . — Staples 2005:160, fig.2.
Material: NMV J54992 View Materials , 1male, 1 sub-adult. 1 November 2005, Mentelle, Western Australia, CSIRO station 015-120, collected by Sherman sled from 33.9800°S 114.7340°E to 33.9837°S 114.7350°E, soft bottom, 97 m.
Remarks: The specimens agree well with description of the types, except that this male is smaller. The chelae fingers of Pseudopallene watsonae are easily recognisable by the prominent lobes one on each finger. The type locality of the species is Althorpe Is., South Australia, but it had been found before at Port Phillip Bay, Victoria ( Staples, 2005). This record is the deepest for the species and adds the westernmost locality suggesting P. watsonae could be distributed all along the southern Australian coast.
