Genus Voronina Polenova, 1952 View in CoL
The validity of the genus Voronina Polenova, 1952 , is controversial. According to Abushik (1990), this genus is a junior synonym of Timanella Egorov, 1950 , whereas, according to Shaver (1961), Voronina is possibly an equivalent to Cavellina Coryell, 1928 . We do not share these opinions because the lateral contour of the carapace of Voronina voronensis Polenova, 1952 , the type species of the genus, differs from that of Timanella and Cavellina .
