Flabellum (F.) curvatum Moseley, 1881 View in CoL

Flabellum (F.) curvatum Moseley, 1881: 174–175 View in CoL , pl. 6, figs. 3a–d. — Cairns, 1982: 35–38, pl. 10, figs. 10–11, pl. 11, figs. 6–9, map 9.

New Record. — Akebono Maru View in CoL 72–85, 55°01.7'S, 72°27.2'W, 275 m, 18 Nov 1978, 1 corallum, MNHNS GoogleMaps .

Remarks. — Flabellum curvatum is known off Chile from only two records from the Drake Passage off Cape Horn (406–1137 m) reported by Cairns (1982), and off Isla Stewart (275 m, 55°S) reported herein. Like B. malouinensis , its primary distribution is off southeastern South America from Rio de la Plata to Cape Horn, Falkland Islands and South Georgia at depths of 115–1097 m. It is distinguished from F. apertum by having a smooth calicular edge and a bent or curved pedicel.
