Summary: | Opaliopsis opalina (Dall, 1927) (Fig. 12 F, G) MATERIAL EXAMINED. — 1 sh., DW130. REMARKS This species was described under three different names from the same area off Fernandina (Florida); Clench & Turner (1952: 337-338), acting as First Revisers, selected opalina as the valid name and figured all the type specimens. Our specimen (5.9 mm) is similar in size to the holotype of Epitonium dromia Dall, 1927 (5.8 mm) but smaller that the holotype of E. opalinum (10.6 mm). This is the type species of Nystiella Clench & Turner, 1952, which Bouchet & Warén (1986) treated as a junior synonym of Opaliopsis Thiele, 1928. This species was also reported from Brazil by Andrade et al. 2011. New to Spanish waters and to the eastern Atlantic. : Published as part of Ortega, José Rafael & Gofas, Serge, 2019, The unknown bathyal of the Canaries: new species and new records of deep-sea Mollusca, pp. 513-551 in Zoosystema 41 (26) on page 528, DOI: 10.5252/zoosystema2019v41a26, http://zenodo.org/record/3726028 : {"references": ["DALL W.
