DISTRIBUTION. — Southeastern Africa, Andaman Islands, Indonesian Archipelago, Solomon Islands (Dijkstra 2001: 83; Dijkstra & Maestrati 2008: 87); Lord Howe Ridge ( Dijkstra & Marshall 2008: 7), Kermadec Islands, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji Islands, Wallis and Futuna. Depth range 330-510 m (alive). Now also Austral Islands (new record), only single valves at 140-750 m depth.

REMARKS. — The present material is rather variable in sculpture of the left valve. The radial ribs are weak to prominent and closely to widely spaced. The commarginal lamellae are more widely spaced in the central part of the disc to more closely arranged near the periphery. Internal ribs also vary in number (10 to 12, usually 10, with one or two interstitial rudimentary ones). This variation is also observed in other studied material (MNHN) from the tropical Indo-Pacific. All shell characters are similar to the type material.
