Etymology. The specific name is a Latin adjective meaning ‘small’, referring to the minute size of the holotype.

It differs from both species in having receptacles as long as the fovea and half as wide (vs. longer than the fovea and either as wide as or wider than the fovea) (cf. Fig. 21A‒C, Baur et al. 2022: fig. 4D‒E and Lecigne et al. 2019: figs 4A, 5A).
