Abstract

We report two new records of Nassarius karinae Usticke, 1971, from Minerva Seamount and Abrolhos Archipelago, off northeastern Brazil. The new records extend the known geographic range of the species ca. 1000 km southward from Pernambuco to Bahia. These are also the first records of the species in Bahia. Additional notes on shell morphology and comparisons with other congeners are provided herein.
