Type material Hutchings and Peart (2002) state: "Cistenides hyperborea Malmgren, 1866, is poorly known, and the type description does not indicate the number of rows of teeth present on the uncini, although 1 to 3 rows of teeth have been recorded on other material assigned to this species. Material from the species type locality of Greenland needs to be reexamined to ascertain the generic identity of this species. Holthe (1986) suggests that no type material exists and probably was never designated." [details]
