LACM CR 2001 ­ 034.2, 1 female (CL 12.6 mm), ODP site 996, Blake Ridge Diapir, 32°28.135'N, 76°11.486'W, 2167 m, DSV Alvin dive 3910, slurp gun, 27 July 2003.</p> <p>Distribution. Florida Escarpment in the Gulf of Mexico, 3277 m (Williams, 1988); Barbados Accretionary prism, 1697 m (Komai &amp; Segonzac, 2005); West African equatorial margin, Congo Basin, 3113–3150 m (Komai &amp; Segonzac, 2005); Blake Ridge Diapir, 2155 m (this study).</p> <p>Remarks. The single female specimen collected from one small outcrop of methane hydrate differs from the specimens here referred to A. methanophila n. sp. in the proportionally longer rostrum (0.67 times of the carapace length), slender second segment of the antennular peduncle (1.96 times longer than wide) and narrower antennal scale (about 2.1 times longer than wide). Based on these features, combined with the notably convex branchiostegal region of the carapace, this female specimen is assigned to A. muricola with little hesitation.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B77287A27F045D5D173EFA0038E81A3C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
