Com. Ahyong, August 30th, 2002 "Raoulserenea pygmaea Caldwell & Manning, 2000, is a junior synonym of R. hieroglyphica. Unfortunately, several species are present in the type series. The holotype of R. pygmaea is definitely R. hieroglyphica, but some of the paratype are a new species which I am now working on with Caldwell". - Unpublished specimens. Coll.
