MATERIAL. LV-82-6, 55.6922°N 167. 1199ºE – 55.6826°N 167.1075ºE, depth 3599– 3397 m, one specimen photographed.
REMARKS. The species has a white oral disc with the tentacles arranged on its margin, so that the most part of the disc has no tentacles, a feature characteristic for many species of Sicyonis Hertwig, 1882 . The arrangement of the tentacles also resembles Sicyonis . This white specimen was photographed deeper than all other members of the genus Sicyonis known in this region and known from the literature records of Exocoelactis species, which have some external resemblance with some Sicyonis species. Most probably this is undescribed species.
