The incomplete female specimen from St. 274 undoubtedly belongs to this well-defined species, which has been recorded only from Antarctic waters. There appears to be little but the exoskeleton in this instance and it is probable that the specimen was captured in the Antarctic but may have been left entangled in the net for some time. At any rate, the material is not sufficient to warrant the supposition that A. serratipalpis extends from Graham Land, the South Shetlands and South Georgia northwards into tropical waters.
