Psilaster patagiatus Sladen, 1889 View in CoL — Gage et al. 1983: 275.

Type locality: off Cape Verde .

See: A.M. Clark & Downey (1992); Benavides-Serrato et al. (2011: 127).

Occurrence: North Atlantic, from the Denmark Strait (SW of Iceland; A.M. Clark & Downey 1992), south of the Rockall Trough ( Harvey et al. 1988) to NW Africa, including the Azores, Madeira and Cape Verde ( Koehler 1909); also reported for the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean (A.M. Clark & Downey 1992).

Depth: 730– 2,970 m (A.M. Clark & Downey 1992); AZO: 1,095 –1,919 GoogleMaps m ( Koehler 1909).

Habitat: soft sediments ( Koehler 1909).

Larval stage: lecithotrophic (A.M. Clark & Downey 1992).

Remarks: Perrier (1896a) reported Psilaster andromeda based on material collected by Hirondelle in the Azores. Later, Koehler (1909) re-examined the material and concluded that Perrier confused P. andromeda with Persephonaster patagiatus (= Psilasteropsis patagiatus ), and reassigned the specimens to the latter species (see remarks under P. andromeda andromeda ).
