The very insufficient characters given in the reference cited 
must be accepted as the first description of this species; although 
now known to be non-diagnostic, at the time it was written they 
separated this species sharply from all others which had been 
described. In 1881 P. H. Carpenter (Notes from the Leyden 
Museum, III, p. 192 [“ protecta”]) gave some additional data, 
and compared the species with Wimerometra spicata; in 1888 
(Challenger Reports, X XVI, Zool., p. 225) he inserted it in 
his key to the *“ Palmata group,” thereby making its specific 
relations clear. Ignoring all this, Hartlaub in 1890 described 
it as a new species (Nachr. Ges. Gottingen, May, 1890, p. 180), 
although in his later work (Nova Acta Acad. German., LVITI, 
No. 1, p. 68) he acknowledged the priority of Carpenter, 1888.
