Ophiozonella Matsumoto, 1915
Ophiozonella stellata (Lyman)
- Ophiozona stellata Lyman, T., 1882. Challenger Ophiuroidea, p. 22–3, Pl. 11.
Material Examined: None.
The holotype of the species was from Challenger Station 168, in 1,100 fathoms, off Cape Kidnappers, at the southern end of the Kermadec Trench. The species was also taken at Station 169, in 700 fathoms off East Cape. It is therefore to be expected in Cook Strait.
