Diagnosis Leptometra differing from L. phlangium in having cirri proportionately shorter and not tapered distally, so that the distal portion appears stouter. Distal cirrals shorter; L/W ratio of cirrals in distal third ranging from a third longer than wide to wider than long. Shorter cirrals with distal aboral edge often somewhat swollen, producing slightly scalloped aboral profile. [details]Distribution Also SW of Alidade Bank, Morocco, and NE of Galita I., Tunisia. Depth range: (?427) 440-445 (?510) m. [details]
Distribution S of Faeroe Islands, NW Scotland and W Ireland S to Madeira, Sierra Leone, and W end of Straits of Gibraltar.
Depth range: 46-1,279 m. [details]
