Abstract

Three new records of Pseudotorinia architae (O.G. Costa, 1841) are reported from southeastern Brazil, namely from the continental slope of Abrolhos (off Espírito Santo state) and from off Vitória Island and São Sebastião (São Paulo state). These new records greatly extend the known geographic range of the species; its previously southernmost record being from the Caribbean Sea.
