Notes

Specimens of Aphrodita aculeata from the Adriatic and Aegean may have been confused with Aphrodita alta Kinberg, 1865 or Aphrodita perarmata Roule, 1898 ( Barnich and Fiege 2000b). In addition, the description of Aphrodita aculeata by Fauvel (1923) contains elements of both Aphrodita aculeata and Aphrodita alta , thus specimens identified using Fauvel's key may belong to either species.
