Abstract / Notes
From a survey of the interstitial fauna at Giglio, Italy, the new species Symsagittifera smaragdina sp. nov., (Sagittiferidae) is described. We herein transfer the genus Praesagittifera and its three species P. gracilis (Yamasu, 1982), P. naikaiensis (Yamasu, 1982), and P. shikoki Kostenko & Mamkaev, 1990 to the family Convolutidae. In addition the diagnosis for the family Sagittiferidae is revised to include only those species possessing sagittocysts in adult specimens.
