Synopsis

Eight nominal species referable to Hemigellius have been described from the north-eastern Atlantic area, but only two of them are well-established, viz. Hemigellius arcoferus (Vosmaer) and H. pumiceus (Fristedt). The remaining species are either synonyms of these two, or insufficiently documented.
