PEP 8 says:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|The closing brace/bracket/parenthesis on multi-line constructs may
|either line up under the last item of the list, as in:
|
|my_list = [
|    1, 2, 3,
|    4, 5, 6,
|    ]
|result = some_function_that_takes_arguments(
|    'a', 'b', 'c',
|    'd', 'e', 'f',
|    )
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think the code isn't consistent with the description.  See:
