Cyclocaris sp.

Cyclocaris sp. — Shulenberger & Hessler, 1974: 185.— Shulenberger & Barnard, 1976: 257–258.— Hessler, Ingram & Smith, 1979: 703–714.— Ingram & Hessler, 1983: 690, 698.

Remarks. A single specimen showing “... numerous characteristics intermediate between the two known species of the genus ...” was recovered from a trap set at 5720 m at 28ºN 155ºW ( Shulenberger & Barnard, 1976). A further 66 specimens were trapped in the same area centred around 30º N 158ºW and 31ºN 158ºW at 5600–6000 m ( Hessler et al., 1979; Ingram & Hessler, 1983). No description has been given and the status of this material remains uncertain.
