Cerberilla affinis from Reunion Island

February 14, 2005
From: Philibert Bidgrain

Dear Bill,
Reunion Island sea slugs.
We have only one specimen of Cerberilla affinis, observed by Maurice Jay in "Mare de Baramine" in a permanant pool in interdidal area
at Saint Paul, Reunion Island. A few years ago...

Best Regards

Dear Philibert,
I would call this Cerberilla affinis Bergh, 1880. As I discuss on the species Fact Sheet, two other species from the Indian Ocean, C. africana Eliot, 1903b (East Africa) and C. moebii (Bergh, 1888b - Mauritius) may be synonyms, but we don't know enough about them at present.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
