TYPE LOCALITY. — Indonesia, Makassar Strait , 0˚34.6’N, 119˚8.5’E, 1301 m, alive, yellow mud [ Siboga stn 88] .
MATERIAL EXAMINED. — The type material. Marquesas. MUSORSTOM 9: stn CP 1290, 8˚53’S, 139˚38’W, 341-344 m, 1 spm (Figs 34, 35) .
DISTRIBUTION. — Indonesia; live in 1301 m. New record for the Marquesas Islands . Present specimen live in 341- 344 m.
DESCRIPTION. — Shell small, up to c. 10 mm in height, fragile, semi-transparent, flattened, circular, inequivalve, nearly equilateral, left valve slightly inflated, right valve flat, posterior auricle somewhat curved below disc, demarcated by a fold and slightly larger than anterior, umbonal angle c. 110˚, colour whitish semi-transparent.
Left valve completely smooth and dull, without commarginal undulations, lacking macro- and microsculpture.
Right valve slightly more opaque than left valve, up to 1 mm high, glossy. Anterior auricle with delicate commarginal lirae, posterior smooth and continuous with disc. Hinge line straight. Internal ribs absent. Byssal notch relatively deep, byssal fasciole and ctenolium lacking.
REMARKS. — The present specimen from the Marquesas is similar to the type specimen from Indonesia, but differs in size (height 6 mm, typical 10 mm) and sculpture of the right valve, which has delicate commarginal lirae in the early growth stage (smooth in the type) and commarginal lirae on the anterior auricle of the right valve (smooth in the type). Other morphological characters are very similar .
