Pinnotheres latipes Hombron & Jacquinot, 1846 View in CoL

Pinnotheres latipes Hombron & Jacquinot, 1846 View in CoL : pl. 5: figs. 16–20 [type locality: Raffles Bay, Northern Territory, Australia]. — Miers, 1876: 48 –49. — Filhol, 1885a: 50; 1885b: 394, 395. — Scott, 1961: 303. — Schmitt et al., 1973: 51. — Davie, 2002: 433.

Pinnotheres laticeps . — Hutton, 1882: 264 [misspelling].

Australian hosts. Bivalve molluscs, Pinnidae . Pinna sp. (Hombron & Jacquinot 1846).

Remarks. Holthuis (2002) recently resolved confusion surrounding publication date and authorship of P. latipes and other species collected by the “Astrolabe” and “Zélée” between 1837 and 1840. As shown by Hutton (1882), Hombron & Jacquinot (1846) incorrectly placed the type locality, Raffles Bay, in New Zealand rather than the Northern Territory, Australia.

Distribution. Raffles Bay, Northern Territory, Australia (Hombron & Jacquinot 1846, Davie 2002).
