Abertellidae View in CoL

The single abertellid species analyzed, Abertella alberti , is represented here by a single, 93 mm large specimen. Although Gregory’ s diverticulum was not found in this specimen with an intact Aristotle’ s lantern, the size of the specimen most likely does not permit drawing any conclusions from this observation.
