Figs 6A–F View Fig
Lepidochitona rolani Kaas & Strack 1986: 83 View in CoL , figs 1, 16–28; Kaas & Van Belle 1987: 33, fig. 15; Kaas 1991: 91; Rolán 2005: 27, fig. 3. Type material: Holotype in MNCN. Paratypes: Many specimens in several institutions (see Kaas & Strack 1986). Type locality: Cape Verde Archipelago, São Vicente, Calhão , intertidal.
Material examined: ST06: 1 specimen, length 2 mm, and 7 valves (2 head, maximum width 2.2 mm, and 5 intermediate, maximum width 3 mm) ( BD 120A ); ST11: 3 valves (2 intermediate, maximum width 2.2mm, and 1 tail, width 2.1 mm) ( BD 120B ); PR05: 5 intermediate valves, maximum width 2.5 mm ( ER) ; PR07: 13 valves (2 head, maximum width 2.8 mm, 10 intermediate, maximum width 3.7 mm, and 1 tail, width 1.6 mm) ( BD 120C ) .
Distribution: Cape Verde Archipelago, and São Tomé and Príncipe Islands.
Comparison and remarks: The material examined was a unique, small living specimen ( Fig. 6A View Fig ) and many separate valves, well defined by the rounded intermediate valves, and by the characteristic microsculpture ( Figs 6D, 6F View Fig ). All are characters that agree well with the original description given by Kaas and Strack (1986).
