Material examined. DongSha 2014 cruise, stn DW 4125, 21°02’N, 116°28’E, depth 305–306 m, four specimens. Remarks. In outline and ornamentation the specimens resemble Terebratulina japonica , a species known from off
Japan ( Hatai 1940, Logan 2007) and Fiji ( Bitner 2006, 2008). Terebratulina japonica is characterized by a rounded to
oval shell ornamented by numerous fine but distinct ribs. Two other Terebratulina species known from this region, T.
photina and T. hataiana , are larger than T. japonica , the first having a nearly smooth surface, the second fine, flat
costellae ( Dall 1920, Cooper 1973c).
