Remarks.
Regarded as a synonym of
Colpodaspis pusilla
M. Sars, 1870
, by both
Lemche (1948: 40)
and Oliverio
& Tringali (2001: 129; 124, fig. 10, 125, figs 17–19). As noticed by the latter, “
Diaphana quadrata
(Monterosato, 1874)
” sensu
Nordsieck (1972: 25; 235, fig. 4)
does not seem to belong to the present species. The drawing by Nordsieck seems to fit an undescribed species of the genus
Diaphana
T. Brown, 1827
, figured by
Oliverio (2000: 47, fig. 12)
and currently in study by one of us (LPT). Recorded by MolluscaBase (2018) as a synonym of
Colpodaspis pusilla
M. Sars, 1870
