Comments

Specimen caught by a bottom trawl neat the Sentinelle Bank, off the Algerian coast. Presence could be due to a recent eastward diffusion; first Meditteranean specimens could have derived from a larva carried by the influx of Atlantic water entering through the Strait of Gibraltar (Ref. 32504).
