This species has recently been described by Martynov et al. (2020a). Until Remarks. For this recently described deep-sea recently, only the single species D. robustus species there is no additional morphological was recognized among the wide-bodied, information and molecular data is very shallow-water dendronotids of the North limited. In particular, the dorsolateral Atlantic and the North Pacific shelf (Ekimova appendages need a further detailed study. et al.,2015).However, most recent data showed that “ D. robustus ” is a species complex, which Dendronotus comteti Valdés & Bouchet, 1998 was already separated into D. robustus s.str., Dendronotus comteti Valdés and Bouchet , D. velifer and D. bathyvela (Lundin et al., 2017; 1998: 320–323, Figs 1–3 View FIGURE 1 View FIGURE 2 View FIGURE 3 .

Remarks. This is the only known species that originated from deep-sea hydrothermal habitats, and which was considered as belonging to the genus Dendronotus according to its external and internal characters. Molecular data is necessary to determine its phylogenetic position.
