INTRODUCTION

G. O. Sars found the first specimens of Rhabdopleura in 1866. The specimens were found by dredging at 220 m at Skraaven in the Lofoten Islands. However, the first Rhabdopleura was described by Allman in 1869 (a, b, c) which he called Rhabdopleura normani in honour of A. M. Norman who together with J. G. Jefferys found them while dredging at 165 m off the Shetland Islands in 1868.
