Abstract |
Ten excellent specimens of Chondrometra rugosa A. H. Clark 1918 (Echinodermata, Crinoidea, Comatulida, Charitometridae) were collected from the depth of 763-796 m off the Shima Peninsula, Kumano-nada Sea, central Japan on May 1st, 2004. This species has been known from tropical West Pacific. This is the first record for waters around Japan. We propose the Japanese name of this species as "Oni-katsura-umishida". |
