Abstract

Living specimens of the bathyal species Nuculana cornidei Altimira, 1974 were found on the continental slope off Namibia. The species was hitherto only known from NW Africa (Mauritania and Western Sahara). It is most likely that the species has been overlooked in the bathyal fauna from offshore tropical western Africa.
