| Comments | Type by monotypy. Entry in Habishaw reads: " Stenopterotia- S. anceps, Bréb. in litt. Moll. t.p.2, 5, 15 (Surirella anceps)". The genus is not validly published here because a generic description is lacking and "reference to an earlier description [of Surirella anceps] is not accepted as provision of such description or diagnosis" (see Art. 42.1). This invalid name is synonymous with Stenopterobia Brébisson ex Van Heurck. |
