Holotype - Belgica, st. 2, sample 301, 70°33’S, 89°22’W, 600 m, May 1898 - RBINS, OPH.158 - The soft tissue had degraded as a consequence of its long preservation (and perhaps as a consequence of bad fixation and/or decrease of alcohol concentration). It resulted from this that all the ossicles fell apart when the specimen was handled. Hence it is not possible to provide habitus photographs of the specimen.
