From editor or global species database
Spelling Species name 'annulatus', meaning ringed, as used by authors, is incorrect for gender agreement, and here mandatorily corrected to Sclerolinum annulatum. As illustration of how accepted 'annulatum is as an epithet, in WoRMS there are 85 names in which 'annulatum' has been correctly used as the epithet with a neuter genus, whereas 'annulatus' would only be used with a masculine genus.
