Plate 5 Issued from : V.N. Andronov in Russian Acad. Sci. P.P. Shirshov Inst. Oceanol. Atlantic Branch, Kaliningrad, 2014. [p.84, Fig.21: 15]. Parundinella emarginata after Andronov, 2003. Female P5.
hyperbenthic. (1750-1822 m). The species is closely related to P. manicula. Grice (1972, p.240) points to the male described could actually be the undescribed male of P. manicula Fleminger, 1957.
