How did Abdiel protection compare with Capitani Romani?

How heavily protected was the Abdiel-class fast minelayer compared with the Capitani Romani?

Abdiel was about 1,100 tons lighter and similarly fast, yet carried roughly two-inch protection around important spaces while using four-inch rather than six-inch guns.

The Abdiel class displaced about 2,650 tons standard, roughly 1,100 tons less than the Capitani Romani, and could still make about 40 knots. Protection around magazines, machinery, and other important spaces reached roughly two inches in places. The British ships carried four-inch weapons rather than the Italian six-inch battery. The contrast shows Italy spending more displacement on cruiser-caliber firepower while Britain retained useful local protection in a smaller fast minelayer.
