This genus was created by Johannes Thiele in 1925 to accommodate Pleurotorna vepallida Martens, 1902. The genus remains little known because of the original scarcity of specimens in the museums. Deap-sea expeditions have since recovered more than 200 additional specimens from the South-East Asia and the South-West Pacific, mainly in the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris

gollark: Illinois, wasn't it? They had a "pi bill'". Although I believe it was rapidly thrown out.
gollark: Anyway, due to the wild parsnip threat, I fully support solar elimination.
