                       Abstract
                       This dataset includes information on sea stars collected during the ANDEEP3 expedition, which took
                       place in 2005. The expedition focused on deep-sea stations in the Powell Basin and Weddell Sea.
                            Sea stars were collected using an Agassiz trawl (3m, mesh-size 500µm), deployed in 16 stations
                       during the ANTXXII/3 (ANDEEP3, PS72) expedition of the RV Polarstern. Sampling depth ranged
                       from 1047 to 4931m. Trawling distance ranged from 731 to 3841m. The sampling area ranges from
                       -41°S to -71°S (latitude) and from 0 to -65°W (longitude). A complete list of stations is available from
                       the PANGAEA data system (http://www.pangaea.de/PHP/CruiseReports.php?b=Polarstern), including a
                       cruise report (http://epic-reports.awi.de/3694/1/PE_72.pdf ).
                            The dataset includes 50 records, with individual counts ranging from 1-10, reaching a total of 132
                       specimens.
                            The andeep3-Asteroidea is a unique dataset as it covers an under-explored region of the Southern
                       Ocean, and that very little information was available regarding Antarctic deep-sea starfish. Before this
                       study, most of the information available focused on starfish from shallower depths than 1000m. This
                       dataset allowed to make unique observations, such as the fact that some species were only present at
                       very high depths (Hymenaster crucifer, Hymenaster pellucidus, Hymenaster praecoquis, Psilaster charcoti,
                       Freyella attenuata, Freyastera tuberculata, Styrachaster chuni and Vemaster sudatlanticus were all found below
                       -3770m), while others displayed remarkable eurybathy, with very high depths amplitudes (Bathybiaster
                       loripes (4842m), Lysasterias adeliae (4832m), Lophaster stellans (4752m), Cheiraster planeta (4708m), Er-
                       emicaster crassus (4626m), Lophaster gaini (4560m) and Ctenodiscus australis (4489m)).
                            Even if the number of records is relatively small, the data bring many new insights on the taxonomic,
                       bathymetric and geographic distributions of Southern starfish, covering a very large sampling zone. The
                       dataset also brings to light six species, newly reported in the Southern Ocean.
                            The quality of the data was controlled very thoroughly, by means of on-board Polarstern GPS sys-
                       tems, checking of identification by a renowned specialist (Prof. Michel Jangoux, Université Libre de Brux-

ZooKeys 185: 73–78. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.185.3078 Abstract This dataset includes information on sea stars collected during the ANDEEP3 expedition, which took place in 2005. The expedition focused on deep-sea stations in the Powell Basin and Weddell Sea. Sea stars were collected using an Agassiz trawl (3m, mesh-size 500µm), deployed in 16 stations during the ANTXXII/3 (ANDEEP3, PS72) expedition of the RV Polarstern. Sampling depth ranged from 1047 to 4931m. Trawling distance ranged from 731 to 3841m. The sampling area ranges from -41°S to -71°S (latitude) and from 0 to -65°W (longitude). A complete list of stations is available from the PANGAEA data system (http://www.pangaea.de/PHP/CruiseReports.php?b=Polarstern), including a cruise report (http://epic-reports.awi.de/3694/1/PE_72.pdf ). The dataset includes 50 records, with individual counts ranging from 1-10, reaching a total of 132 specimens. The andeep3-Asteroidea is a unique dataset as it covers an under-explored region of the Southern Ocean, and that very little information was available regarding Antarctic deep-sea starfish. Before this study, most of the information available focused on starfish from shallower depths than 1000m. This dataset allowed to make unique observations, such as the fact that some species were only present at very high depths (Hymenaster crucifer, Hymenaster pellucidus, Hymenaster praecoquis, Psilaster charcoti, Freyella attenuata, Freyastera tuberculata, Styrachaster chuni and Vemaster sudatlanticus were all found below -3770m), while others displayed remarkable eurybathy, with very high depths amplitudes (Bathybiaster loripes (4842m), Lysasterias adeliae (4832m), Lophaster stellans (4752m), Cheiraster planeta (4708m), Er- emicaster crassus (4626m), Lophaster gaini (4560m) and Ctenodiscus australis (4489m)). Even if the number of records is relatively small, the data bring many new insights on the taxonomic, bathymetric and geographic distributions of Southern starfish, covering a very large sampling zone. The dataset also brings to light six species, newly reported in the Southern Ocean. The quality of the data was controlled very thoroughly, by means of on-board Polarstern GPS sys- tems, checking of identification by a renowned specialist (Prof. Michel Jangoux, Université Libre de Brux- Copyright Bruno Danis et al.
