Material referable to this species seems to be very rare in the 

 Philippine region, occurring at but five stations: D5236, in 494 

 fathoms (903 meters), Pacific Ocean, east coast Mindanao, bottom 

 temperature 41.2° F. (5.1° C.) ; D5296, China Sea, off southern Luzon, 

 210 fathoms (384 meters); D5333, in 310 fathoms (567 meters), 

 Mindoro Strait, bottom temperature 73.8° F. (23.2° C.) ; D5478, be- 

 tween Samar and Leyte, 57 fathoms (104 meters) ; and D5642, in 37 

 fathoms (68 meters), Buton Strait. Specimens were not frequent at 

 any of the stations.

This rather strikingly ornamented species has occurred at five 

 stations: D5217, east of Masbate Island, 105 fathoms (193 meters); 

 D5238, Pacific Ocean, east coast of Mindanao, 380 fathoms (700 

 meters); D5255, Gulf of Davao, 100 fathoms (183 meters) ; D5268, in 

 170 fathoms (311 meters), Verde Island Passage; and D5481 in 61 

 fathoms (112 meters), between Samar and Lej^te, vicinity of Surigao 

 Strait. Specimens were rare at all these stations.
