Taxon Notes:

Added based on CSIRO specimens collected from the Queensland (16 55 S, 151 34 E) and Marion Plateaus (18 59 S, 150 32 E), Coral Sea in depths of 879-886m (see Last et al 2014, Zootaxa 3887). The specimens are tentatively identified as B. parini. Further taxonomic work is required to determine which of the following three similar species are actually in Australia: B. parini, B. ventralis and B. atricolor, and their Australian distributions.
