Lithomelissa capito Ehrenberg, 1874

Lithomelissa capito n. sp., Ehrenberg, 1874, p. 240 –241 [not figured].

Lithomelissa capito Ehrenberg, Ehrenberg, 1876 , pl. 3, fig. 14.

Peromelissa capito (Ehrenberg) , Haeckel, 1887, p. 1237 [not figured].

Lithomelissa capito Ehrenberg, Ogane et al., 2009 , pl. 34, figs. 2A–F.

Remarks. Illustrated specimens of this species do not sufficiently portray the nature of the apical spine, so it is difficult to determine whether this species best fits Lithomelissa or instead Peromelissa (as Haeckel, 1887 suggested). It may also be within the range of Lophophaena , but Ehrenberg (1874) already described a separate species as Lophophaena capito (see above).
