 Lagisca rarispina (Sars). — Hartman, 1959, p. 85. 



Material: Stations 54(10), 57(1); Bering and Chukchi Seas. 



Remarks: Pettibone (1954) listed L. rarispina as a synonym of 

 Harmothoe extenuata (Grube). Hartman (1959) transferred this 

 latter species to the genus Lagisca and listed these two as separate 

 species. The presence of long rod-shaped papillae on the elytrae of 

 L. rarisjpina, lacking on L. extenuata, is believed to be of sufficient 

 difference to retain these as separate species. 



Distribution: Known from Washington to Chukchi Sea, Hudson 

 Bay, and North Atlantic to depths of 420 meters.
