Pectinella aequoris Dijkstra, 1991: 23 , figs 78-86; 1995a: 44, figs 71-74.

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — Indonesia. N of Sumbawa, 175-185 m, holotype lv ( RMNH 56567).

Banc Président Thiers. BENTHAUS, stn DW 1932, 24°41’S, 146°02’W, 500-800 m, 2 lv. — Stn DW 1937, 24°40’S, 145°56’W, 469-500 m, 1 lv.

Banc Lotus. BENTHAUS, stn DW 1951, 23°49’S, 147°53’W, 206-450 m, 1 rv.

Rurutu. BENTHAUS, stn DW 1999, 22°25’S, 151°22’W, 270-500 m, 1 rv. — Stn DW 2003, 22°28’S, 151°19’W, 250-330 m, 1 rv.

Rimatara. BENTHAUS, stn DW 2015, 22°38’S, 152°50’W, 250-280 m, 1 lv.

DISTRIBUTION. — Indonesia, New Caledonia, Fiji Islands (Dijkstra 2001: 90; Dijkstra & Maestrati 2008: 102) and Hawaii Islands .Depth range 260 m (alive).Now also Austral Islands (new record), only single valves in 206-500 m.

REMARKS

The present specimens are indistinguishable from the type material from Indonesia, although they are much larger in size (up to 22 mm in height, holotype 4.1 mm). Other characters are identical. Judging from SW Pacific specimens (MNHN, coll. HD) the type material is immature.
