Eucopia unguiculata ( Willemoës-Suhm, 1875) View in CoL

Distribution. Widely distributed in the world oceans in tropical and temperate areas. Atlantic, Indo-Pacific, Antarctica, Philippines. Northwestern Mediterranean Sea.

Depth range. 100–6500 m.

Habitat. Bathypelagic as adult, young specimens live in considerably higher levels than adults.

Iberian Seas published records. SE Bay of Biscay continental slope ( Fage 1942, De Jong & Casanova 1997b, Lagardère & Nouvel 1980, Lagardère 1983, 1985, Petryashov 2014).

Remarks. According to Tattersall & Tattersall (1951), Wittmann & Ariani (2010) and Wittmann & Riera (2012), Eucopia hanseni Nouvel, 1942 , is considered synonymous with Eucopia unguiculata (several Iberian records of this specie are reported as E. hanseni ).
