Cephalodella sp.

A single specimen of a small (~125 µm) and apparently new species was found on two occasions in sublittoral psammon of the Côte d’Azur and Tyrrhenian Sea; 50 m to 3.5 km off shore, depth 17 − 30 m. Habitus and trophi (Fig. 27 A) suggest identity with the Cephalodella sp. reported from sandy detritus of the Northern Adriatic Sea (Fontaneto et al. 2008; D. Fontaneto pers. comm.).
