Holotype
examined. Specimen is in good condition, not damaged or dissected. This species belongs, without doubt, in
Serranillus
because the male
holotype
has three denticles on the apex of the sternum
VII
. But the specimen illustrated under this name by
Jeannel (1963
a
)
and
Barr (1995)
is a member of
Anillinus
. Obviously, Jeannel had a mixture of species among the type material, and after dissecting and illustrating the
Anillinus
species
, he erroneously labeled a specimen of a different genus and species as the
holotype
that was deposited in the
USNM
. Thus, one of the most illustrated
Anillinus
species
has, until now, remained undescribed. That species is described herein as
A. loweae
Sokolov and Carlton.
This species represents the second described species of
Serranillus
. From the typespecies,
S. jeanneli Barr
, it may be distinguished by its small size (
ABL
–
1.83 mm
versus
2.5 to 3.2 mm
, according to the description of
S. jeanneli
Barr
) (
Barr 1995
).
