Nomenclatural note
"This species was quoted from the Adriatic Sea by both Preda (1908: 166) and Giaccone (1978: 66) (from the latter one with doubt on its taxonomic value). The synonymy of this species with P. pluma, proposed by Feldmann- Mazoyer (1941: 372), was later confirmed and documented by Dixon (1962a)." )Cormaci & al. 2023: 417). - (04 December 2023) - M.D. Guiry
