Type locality Molo Strait, Indonesia, Siboga Station 51, 8°45'S 119°46'E,
69-91 m [details] Type material According to the USNM data portal, that museum holds a specimen also from Molo Strait, USNM 55184, and labelled holotype of Aphroditella floresiana . This must be incorrect if only because Horst did not designate primary types. Perhaps it is a dissected part from a syntype? Hutchings & McRae (1993) were unaware of the USNM "type" material but the data portal did not exist in 1993. [details]
