description: <i>PARALOMIS JAMSTECI</i> TAKEDA &amp; HASHIMOTO, 1990 <i>Type locality</i>: North Pacific Ocean, Okinawa Trough, hydrothermal vents of the Minami-Ensei Knoll; 28°23.4′N, 127°38.4′E; 710 m. <i>Known range</i>: Known only from the type locality (above). <i>Material</i>: North Pacific Ocean, Okinawa Trough, Minami-Ensei Knoll, 28°23.4′N, 127°38.4′E; 710 m; <i>Shinkai 2000</i> dive 428; 26 July 1989; NSMT-Cr 10172 [holotype female (ovigerous)], NSMT-Cr 10173 (paratype, 1 male), USNM and MNHN (2 ovigerous females) (Takeda &amp; Hashimoto, 1990; also see Hashimoto <i>et al.</i>, 1990, 1995; Hashimoto, 1997, in Desbruyeres &amp; Segonzac, 1997). <i>Remarks</i>: <i>Paralomis jamsteci</i> was described as living among beds of mytilid mussels near vent openings (Takeda &amp; Hashimoto, 1990; Hashimoto <i>et al</i>., 1995). Hashimoto (1997, in Desbruyeres &amp; Segonzac, 1997: 199) described the ecology of the species as ‘crawling around bacterial mats close to hydrothermal vents’ with vent temperatures reaching 269 °C. Hashimoto <i>et al.</i> (1995) also mentioned two other unidentified species of <i>Paralomis</i> living at the Minami-Ensei vent fields (Hashimoto <i>et al.</i>, 1995; Chevaldonné &amp; Olu, 1996). To date the species is known only from that site and from the specimens noted above. See Chevaldonné &amp; Olu (1996: 289) for reports of this species feeding on vesicomyid and mytilid bivalves.
