“…A few years later Neuhaus and Sørensen (2013) reported Campyloderes cf. vanhoeffeni Zelinka (1913) in the Guinea Basin at 5064 m and in the southeastern deep-sea region of Canary Island at depths between 5055 m and 5118 m. Sánchez et al (2014a,b) described three additional species, i.e., Mixtophyes abyssalis Sánchez et al (2014a,b), Cristaphyes nubilis (Sánchez et al, 2014a,b), and Krakenella farinelli (Sánchez et al, 2014a,b), from the Guinea Basin, at depths between 5100-5175 m. The remaining and more recent reports of identified abyssal kinorhynchs are restricted to five areas: (1) abyssal plains, 3100-3300 m, around North Atlantic seamounts, from where Yamasaki et al (2019) describe Echinoderes kaempfae Yamasaki et al, 2019; (2) the East Mediterranean, 675-4403 m, from where Yamasaki et al (2018a) describe Echinoderes pterus Yamasaki et al, 2018a,b; (3) abyssal plains, 3351-5766, in the vicinity of the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench, from where Adrianov and Maiorova (2015 describe Cristaphyes abyssorum (Adrianov and Maiorova, 2015), Condyloderes kurilensis Adrianov and Maiorova (2016), Meristoderes okhotensis Adrianov and Maiorova (2018a), and Parasemnoderes intermedius Adrianov and Maiorova (2018b); (4) the abyssal plains, 3250-3853 m, off the Northwest American continental slope, from where Sørensen et al (2018) describe E. anniae, E. dubiosus, E. hamiltonorum, E. juliae, E. lupherorum, E. hviidarum, E. yamasakii, and Sørensen et al (2018Sørensen et al ( , 2019 report three additional known kinorhynch species, E. cf. unispinosus Yamasaki et al (2018a,b), Fissuroderes higginsi Neuhaus and Blasche (2006), and C. kurilensis; (5) the Clarion-Clipperton Fracture Zone, 4319-5012 m, in the tropical East Pacific, from where Sánchez et al (2019) describe Cephalorhyncha polunga, Echinoderes shenlong, and Meristoderes taro.…”
