Rem.: epibenthic (1573-1535 m; 2000-3050 m).
Markhaseva & Renz (2011, p.66) attribute their females and males to B. arnei although tey differ somewhat from females defined by Schulz (2006) : smaller size (1.25-1.35 mm) ; Mx1 coxal epipodite with 8 setae (vs. 9 setae in specimens from the type series) ; Mx2 praecoxal endite with 4 setae (vs. 5 setae in type specimens) ; distal seta on middle praecoxal endite of Mxp syncoxa slightly longer than figured for type specimen. Additional collections from different localities are necessary to discuss whether the variability observed is interspecific, or whether a new species should be estabished for the authors’ specimens.
