Garveia nutans: Ramil & Vervoort, 1992: 15–16 View in CoL ; Schuchert, 2007: 251-253, fig, 21; Schuchert, 2012: 222–223, fig. 208.
Material examined. MSM 16 View Materials /3, stn GeoB 14886–1, ROV, 18°39.013’–18°38.476’N , 16°43.580’– 16°43.757’W,
484–640 m, 12-XI-2010: two colonies with gonophores, one colony attached to Madrepora oculata Linnaeus, 1758 and another one to Acesta excavata .
Biology. Garveia nutans is frequently found growing on stones, algae, hydroids and other hard substrata in areas with strong tidal currents ( Schuchert 2007). Fertile colonies have been found between February and December ( Schuchert 2012; Gil & Ramil 2017a).
Our colonies were found with gonophores in November.
Distribution. This species has a worldwide distribution in boreal and temperate seas ( Ramil & Vervoort 1992; Bouillon et al. 2006). In West Africa, G. nutans was only collected from Mauritania ( Gil & Ramil 2017a). Its bathymetric range stretches from 0 ( Schuchert 2007, 2012) to 1339 m ( Gil & Ramil 2017a).
Our material was collected from depths of 484 to 640 m.
