Type locality West of Meyer Islands (S 29°14′39.06″ W177°52′46.56″), near Raoul Island, Kermadec Islands, New Zealand. Tripneustes were abundant in this habitat of rock spurs that had small areas of horizontal rock, to near vertical rock walls (0–10 m) leading to a base of sand (starting at 11 m and gently sloping deeper).

Type material Holotype. Auckland War Memorial Museum, Auckland, New Zealand (AIM MA) specimen AIM MA73563 (isolate nr. Ker907), a cleaned corona, spines and lantern, collected by J. David Aguirre and Libby Liggins on 31/10/2015 at a depth of 0 to 10 m. A tissue sample (tubefeet) has been deposited together with the holotype. Paratypes.

Diagnosis A species of Tripneustes with ambulacral primary tubercles occurring on every fourth plate ambitally; flattened test (height usually <60% test diameter (TD)); large peristomal opening (ca. 25%TD) without sunken margin; presence of one to two plates for every four ambulacral plates occluded from perradial suture (except in smallest specimens <80 mm TD); primary series of interambulacral tubercles continuous from peristome to apex; tubercles large; secondary interambulacral tuberculation reduced above ambitus.
