The paper reports in situ observations and a range extension of Neopilina galatheae, a rare deep-sea monoplacophoran mollusc, collected from a new location on the Eastern Galapagos Spreading Center.

The paper updates the Galapagos Rift hydrothermal vent species list from 74 to 92 species, including 15 new records, to better understand vent fauna biogeography and inform management strategies.
