Antimelatoma eremita
Antimelatoma eremita (Murdoch & Suter, 1906) Fig. 35C Pleurotoma (Leucosyrinx) eremita Murdoch & Suter, 1906: 287, pl. 22 figs 18–19. Type material Holotype NEW ZEALAND • off Great Barrier I., North I.; depth 110 ftm (= 201 m); MNZ, M.001718. Remarks In its shell characters this small species (SL of the holotype 5.8 mm) is very different from Leucosyrinx, but fits well the morphology of the genus Antimelatoma Powell, 1942 (family Psudomelatomidae). It is identified as Antimelatoma in the collections of Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and we follow here this generic assignment. Distribution Type locality.
