Canda ligata ( Jullien, 1882)

( Fig. 28 )

Caberea ligata Jullien, 1882: 518 , pl. 16, figs 51–54; Calvet 1907: 378; Prenant & Bobin 1966: 455, fig. 150 I–IV; d’Hondt 1974: 46, fig. 5.

Canda ligata: Souto et al. 2011: 32 , figs 1–6.

Material examined. MNCN 25.03/3933, locality DR03.

Remarks. This species was recently redescribed (Souto et al. 2011), and the characters of the present specimen coincide fully with the type material. As with Crepis longipes described above, the specimens of this species attributed by Souto et al. (2011) to Galicia Bank in fact correspond to a locality from the northern Iberian continental slope.

Only a single, small, poorly preserved specimen of C. ligata was recorded from Galicia Bank at 1313 m depth.
