Distribution Gulf of Mexico and Strait of Florida to Colombia and Venezuela, including West Indies, but unknown from Caribbean coast of Central America. Bathymetric range: 512–838 m, but varying regionally. Gulf of Mexico, Bahamas and Strait of Florida: 512–768 (possibly 783) m, with only three of 25 records definitely deeper than 700 m. Lesser Antilles: 686–838 m, with only one of nine records definitely shallower than 700 m. [details]

Diagnosis Atelecrinus with centrodorsal base usually parallel-sided; fulcral tubercles weak to moderate; basals weakly inflated interradially, forming continuations of short weak centrodorsal ridges, sometimes reduced to interradial triangles not contiguous midradially; radial profile usually <90º; axils well-separated laterally, rhombic or hexagonal with diverging lateral margins; lateral margins of proximal brachials rounded.
