Description

Pennella brachiata (Blainville, 1822)

Not valid. Blainville (1822) established a new genus Lenaeopenna (synonym of Pennella; Wilson, 1917) based on a single specimen (probably P. sagitta; Wilson 1917 ), which was not actually seen or examined by the author. Accepted as P. sagitta (Walter & Boxshall 2015).
