Chaetaster longipes ( Bruzelius, 1805) View in CoL — $ Sladen 1889: 399–400; Koehler 1909: 88–89, 1914b: 274, 1921b: 37–38, fig. 27, 1924: 140–143; Mortensen 1927a: 95; Tortonese 1965: 154–155, fig. 71; Pawson 1978: 9–10; A.M. Clark & Downey 1992: 145, pl. 35, figs. A–B; $ Wirtz & Debelius 2003: 274; Garrido et al. 2004: 87–88; Wirtz 2006: 77; $ Wirtz 2009: 47–48; Micael & Costa 2010: 322; Micael et al. 2012: 6.

Type locality:?Mediterranean Sea.

See: Tortonese (1965); A.M. Clark & Downey (1992).

Occurrence: Mediterranean Sea and East Atlantic, from Bay of Biscay ( Koehler 1909) to Annobón Island in Gulf of Guinea ( Nataf &Cherbonnier 1975), including the archipelagos of the Azores ( Sladen 1889), Madeira ( Wirtz 2006), Canaries ( Garrido et al. 2004), Cape Verde ( Koehler 1909), St Helena ( Mortensen 1933c) and Ascension ( Pawson 1978).

Depth: 30– 1,140 m ( Mortensen 1927a); AZO: 30–165(?823) m ( Wirtz 2009, Sladen 1889).

Habitat: hard to soft substrates ( Garrido et al. 2004).

Remarks: Sladen (1889) identified Chaetaster longipes among the material dredged by H.M.S. Challenger in the Azores (sta 75: 38°38’00”N, 28°28’30”W) at a depth of 823 m. We believe that this material came from much shallower depths than reported, possibly between 91–165 m (see remarks under Astropecten hermatophilus ).
