In remarks from Tanaka (1962, p.45), three species, S. abyssalis, S. dentata, S. profunda resemble each other in the structure of the female P5.
For Campaner (1984 a, p.182) the males described by Rose (1942) and Tanaka (1962) do not belong to this species, but to S. vittata in the first case, and not assigned in the second.
A doubt subsists on the identity between this species and S. profunda (see remarks at this species).
According to Giesbrecht (1892), the two species are distinguishable by small differences in the shape of P5 like in the figures in Park (1980).
For Vervoort (1965) the two species could be synonyms.
The confusion with S. abyssalis is frequent, hence an uncertain geographical distribution. | | | Last update : 18/01/2021 | |
