This work presents a taxonomic study on the ostracods recovered from sediment samples collected in the Northeastern Atlantic and Western Mediterranean by French scientific expeditions carried out by the Travailleur and Talisman ships in the late 19th century. The samples deposited in the collections of the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle in Paris have not been studied for ostracods since the works of G. S. Brady between 1884 and 1887. Fifty-three species distributed among 28 genera and 12 families are reported, characterizing typical deep-sea faunas. A neotype is proposed for Buntonia radiatopora (Seguenza) and its diagnosis is emended.
