Triacanthella alba Carpenter, 1909
Figs. 190-198

Specimens labelled paratypes of this subantarctic species are in BMNH and these drawings supplement those included in the original description. Two specimens labelled cotypes on slides in the MM were also examined but both are badly damaged.

Notes: The claw has an internal tooth and a pair of outer distal lateral teeth (Figs. 193 and 194) but no tenent hairs; clothing of both short and long simple setae with some longer serrated setae especially around the posterior region.
