Aegiochus gracilipes is characterised by having: large eyes that are only just separated mesially; a smooth body surface; noticeably slender pereopods, pereopods 1 to 3 with an elongate propodus (i.e. three times as long as maximal width), having a small inferodistal lobe that carries one robust seta; and coxae 5 to 7 being distinctly acute with a concave dorsal margin. For a detailed description see Bruce (2009, figs 88–90).</p> <p>Although there have been a several citations of Aega gracilipes since Hansen (1916) these works were not based on additional material, but repeats of the older records published in larger guides (Gurjanova 1932; Kussakin 1979; Schultz 1969) or in lists (Nierstrasz 1931; Brusca 1983; Menzies &amp; Kruczynki 1983). Richardson (1901, 1905) recorded the species from the Gulf of Mexico, but with no other data, and repeated the record in 1905 using the original drawings of Hansen (1895); those record were regarded as of uncertain identity, but re-examination of both historic and recent material held at the United States National Museum confirm that A. gracilipes is present in the Gulf of Mexico.</p> <p>Within the family Aegidae there is usually little gross morphological variation between mancas and adults, making the variation illustrated here for Aegiochus gracilipes exceptional for the family. Given that the figure of the manca holotype (Hansen 1895) has been the only source of identification for the last 120 years, some historical records are still open to question. The distribution is therefore restricted to the present material: the records of Hansen (1895, 1916); Bruce (2009) and the newly examined material herein.</p> <p>Distribution. Sensu stricto (see remarks above). Eastern North Atlantic; Gulf of Mexico, western North Atlantic; Norfolk Ridge (southwestern Pacific) and off Tasmania, Australia (Tasman Sea). Records are from 906 to 4069 metres depth, though most records are at depths between 1000 and 2000 metres.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/A41EBA59FFAEFFC2FF35FEFA16F0FCCF	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
