8. Philobrya limoides Smith, 1907 View in CoL [ Figs 5F–G View FIGURE 5 ]
Philobrya limoides E. A. Smith, 1907: 4 View in CoL , pl. 3, figs 2–2b
Material examined. • 2 spms, Stn. 3.
Type locality. Ross Sea in depths between 37 and 238 m.
Bathymetric distribution. 5–220 m.
Substrate. Soft bottom, probably attached to some biological or abiotic structures.
Geographical distribution. ANTARCTICA: Ross Sea, Davis Sea, Weddell Sea. SUBANTARCTICA: -. SCOTIA ARC: South Shetland Islands, South Orkney Islands. SOUTH AMERICA: -.
Remarks. We follow the argumentation of Urcola & Zelaya (2024), who regard P. limoides as a valid species and not as a synonym of Philobrya sublaevis Pelseneer, 1903 . We found two specimens in depth of 100 m. The species is already known (as P. sublaevis ) from the Maxwell and Admiralty Bays.
