Abstract
Aphotopontius mammillatus Humes, 1987 associated with a vestimentifera n from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent in the Gulf of California (Guaymas Basin), 1993 m depth, is redescribed on the basis of new morphologica l data and reexamination of additional specimens from the type localit y. About twenty morphological characteristics unknown for this species are described and discussed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All right s reserved.
