Ellisella thomsoni (Simpson, 1910)

Junceella elongata Thomson & Henderson, 1906: 81, pl. 1, fig. 10; pl. 9, fig. 17 (Bay of Bengal).

Scirpearia thomsoni Simpson, 1910: 333–334, figs. 61–63 (Bay of Bengal).

Opinion: This species does occur in the region.

Justification:

Literature analysis: Thomson & Henderson (1906) misidentified a specimen as Junceella elongata (Pallas) that was renamed by Simpson as a new species Scirpearia thomsoni, which is actually a species of Ellisella but essentially unrecognisable from both the original and Simpson’s descriptions. See the entry for Ellisella elongata for the history.
