, case 48.
Tetilla anamonaena
;
Lehnert & Stone 2011: 324
, table 1.
The variety was described by Tanita from the Ariake Sea,
Japan
, approximate coordinates
32.9167°N
130.35°E
, depth not provided.
Type
material has not been identified. Tanita & Hoshino (1998) reported the species from the Sagami Bay,
Japan
. Although the name is unavailable because Tanita erected the variety after 1960 (ICZN art. 15.2),
Lehnert & Stone 2011
(table 1) transferred the material to genus
Tetilla
as
T. anamonaena
, which made the name available under ICZN art. 45.5.1 as a
nomen novum
authored by these authors. I confirm the name combination at present as valid.
