Scissurella rota Yaron, 1983 View in CoL
Scissurella rota Yaron, 1983a: 268 View in CoL , pl. 3. Herbert, 1986: 622, figs 7, 25–27. Bosch et al., 1995: 28, fig. 4. Geiger, 2012: 296, figs 185–190, pls. 2F, 3A (further references). Type loc.: Abulat Is., southern Red Sea; holotype in MNHN.
Distribution. Central and western Indian Ocean south to E. Cape (Port Alfred) (Geiger 2012); beach-drift to 60 m (living LST– 26 m).
Notes. Geiger (2012) recorded Scissurella reticulata Philippi, 1853 from South Africa based on literature records of S. rota (Herbert 1986) . However, he listed the same records under S. rota . The coarse sculpture of the specimens concerned (Herbert 1986: figs 25–27) clearly points to them being referable to S. rota . S. reticulata is not currently known to occur in South Africa.
