Leucosyrinx undetermined
Leucosyrinx sp. 24 Figs 10F, 13F Material examined (sequenced) NEW CALEDONIA • 1 lv; SE of Ile des Pins; 23°00′ S, 167°55′ E; depth 845–856 m; KANACONO, stn DW4782; MNHN-IM-2009-66098. Description RADULA (Fig. 10F). Short, comprises around 25 rows of teeth, 10 nascent. Marginal teeth duplex, ~250 µm in length (5.4% AL without canal). Major limb narrow lanceolate in dorsal view, curved. Accessory limb relatively broad, constitutes slightly over half of tooth width, ~0.75 of total tooth length, inserted into distinct deep socket on dorsal side of major limb. DNA diagnosis (based on 1 (!) cox 1 sequence) ‘C’ in site 19, ‘C’ in site 319, ‘C’ in site 346. Remarks This species is represented in our material by a single broken specimen (SL 21.6 mm) and thus we abstain from its formal description. Conchologically it is similar to Leucosyrinx sp. 23. Distribution New Caledonia, 845– 856 m.
