- Toroidia toroides (Hoffman, van Heugten & Lavaleye, 2011) (Fig. 7 A) MATERIAL EXAMINED. — 18 sh., DW130. REMARKS This is the first report of this species after its original description from off NW Morocco in 529 m. It was diagnosed by the occurrence of a spiral sculpture whereas the interspaces between ribs are smooth in the similar Margarites laminarum (Jeffreys, 1883), described from off Portugal and reported from Ampère Seamount (Beck et al. 2006). The original generic placement in Margarites was not tenable, and the new genus Toroidia was established by Hoffman & Freiwald (2018), but the family placement is tentative in the absence of data on the soft parts. New to Spanish waters.
