Abstract: 8. Philobrya limoides Smith, 1907 [Figs 5F–G] Philobrya limoides E. A. Smith, 1907: 4, pl. 3, figs 2–2b Material examined. • 2 spms, Stn. 3. Type locality. Ross Sea in depths between 37 and 238 m. Bathymetric distribution. 5–220 m. Substrate. Soft bottom, probably attached to some biological or abiotic structures. Geographical distribution. ANTARCTICA: Ross Sea, Davis Sea, Weddell Sea. SUBANTARCTICA: -. SCOTIA ARC: South Shetland Islands, South Orkney Islands. SOUTH AMERICA: -. Remarks. We follow the argumentation of Urcola & Zelaya (2024), who regard P. limoides as a valid species and not as a synonym of Philobrya sublaevis Pelseneer, 1903. We found two specimens in depth of 100 m. The species is already known (as P. sublaevis) from the Maxwell and Admiralty Bays. References. Arnaud et al. (1986), Absher & Feijó (1998), Narchi et al. (2002), Engl (2012), Urcola & Zelaya (2024).
