Article Synopsis
  • An examination of Lourinia armata suggests it is actually a complex of four distinct morphospecies, identified through detailed observations.
  • One of these is recognized as Lourinia aff. armata, while the other three are new species: Lourinia wellsi sp. nov., L. gocmeni sp. nov., and L. aldabraensis sp. nov.
  • Additionally, the genus Lourinia is found to be globally distributed, and a previous synonym has been reinstated as Lourinia nicobarica based on its unique features, prompting a call for further exploration of potential new species in this genus.
