Polybius cf. pusillus (Leach, 1816)

Fig. 60

Material examined

EQUATORIAL GUINEA − Annobon Island • 1 ♀ (6.4 ×6.7, damaged specimen); depth 10−15 m; Emilio Rolán leg.; MNCN20.04/06083 .

Remarks

The specimen is not in good condition, and, to be cautious, it is identified as Polybius cf. pusillus . If this identification can be confirmed in the future, this record would extend the distribution for P. pusillus southward, down to Equatorial Guinea.

For identification, see also Froglia & Manning (1982).
