Synonymy Hartman's original description is inadequate and without figures. Without giving any details Sene Silva (2007:87 unpublished thesis) placed Polyophthalmus translucens as a new synonym of Ophelina abranchiata Støp-Bowitz, 1948 from Greenland. Parapar et al (2021; map) appear to adopt this placement. The synonymy proposal is recorded here but not adopted. Sene Silva does not record examining specimens, and the large geographic separation of the two species type localities is a factor to be considered. [details]From other sources
