distribution
Distribution. Pondoland (off Waterfall Bluff) to False Bay; 70 – 550 m (living 300 – 540 m). Notes. There is a possibility that this taxon is synonymous with Puncturella analoga Martens, 1902, which in turn may be a synonym of P. conica (d’Orbigny, 1841) and that there is a single circum-Antarctic species.
