Depth range. 260–5340 m.
Habitat. Muddy bottoms.
Iberian Seas published records. Gulf of Cádiz ( Abelló et al. 2011). Off Canary Archipelago (Dürr & González 2002, Wittmann et al. 2004, Hernández et al. 2008, Wittmann & Riera 2012). Off Morocco ( De Jong 1996).
Remarks. In the Gulf of Cádiz, the species has been found to live on muddy bottoms between 363 and 548 m depths, in areas characterised by the occurrence of submarine mud volcanoes which condition the structure and deposition dynamics of the sediments ( Abelló et al. 2011).
