Remarks.

Mont Galbao and Montagnes de la Trinité represent two new records for this species previously only known from its type locality in Nouragues ( Gargominy and Muratov 2012), suggesting a broader distribution probably extending outside French Guiana.

The first living specimens are reported here. The body is totally white but the area around and below the eyes is lightly pink; two quite distinct black eyes at the outer base of the tentacles; tentacle slightly conical, with the outer third pale pink (Fig. 2 View Figure 2 ). From the four sequenced specimens (all from the same locality) we recovered two haplotypes differing by one synonymous mutation only.
