Abstract: Three species of the crustacean Leptostracan malacostracous occurring in the Rockall Trough are discussed. The epibenthic Nebalia typhlops was found at depths of 1990-2925 m while Nebaliella caboti was found at 1390-2900 m. The pelagic Nebaliopsis typica occurred in samples from depths greater than 1500 m.
