Material examined Holotype CABO VERDE • 12.7 mm; Sal Island, Rabo de Junco, extreme north of Baía de Murdeira; E. Rolán leg.; MNCN 15.05/1099 (Fig. 4A). Other material CABO VERDE • 1 spec.; Sal Island, Rabo de Junco; 16º41ʹ44ʺ N, 24º58ʹ35ʺ W; 6 Apr. 2014; MNCN exped.; GenBank mitochondrion, partial genome: MF491573; MNCN 15.05/79744. Geographical distribution Only known from the type locality at Sal Island, Cabo Verde Archipelago. Conservation status in IUCN Red List Vulnerable. Remarks This small-sized species endemic to Sal Island is closely related to A. cuneolus. Its distinctive shell and radular morphology as well as the phylogenetic data are consistent with its status as a valid species with a very reduced distribution range.
