Remarks. Rossella antarctica (as Rossella dubia (Schulze, 1887 )) is known from a single report off Chile; to the south of Puerta Bueno, in Patagonia (51 ° 27 ' 30 " S; 74 ° 03 ' 00 ” W, RV Challenger, station 310), from a depth of 410 fathoms (= 731.5 m) (Schulze, 1887). The distribution of this species includes Antarctica, southern South America and (doubtfully) off the Azores, in a depth range of 8 to 2000 m (Tabachnick, 2002).
