Description

Pennella rubra Brian, 1906

Not valid. Described from a single specimen (without anterior embedded end) from the ocean sunfish in the Mediterranean. Brian (1912) re-evaluated the original designation and considered his P. rubra a synonym of P. filosa (Wilson 1917). Accepted as P. filosa (Walter & Boxshall 2015).
