Spurilla chromosoma from Japan

September 23, 2001
From: Bill Rudman

Just a brief note to say that Dr Hamatani has published a report of this species in Japan identifying this species as Spurilla neapolitana. I guess the identity of the animal identified in the Forum from Japan and Hong Kong as Spurilla chromosoma will only be resolved when the anatomy of animals of S. chromosoma from California and S. neapolitana from the Mediterranean are re-examined. From recent messages from Colombia, it would also help if specimens from the Caribbean are looked at as well.

• Hamatani, I (2000) A new recorded species of the genus Spurilla Bergh, 1864 from Osaka Bay, Middle Japan (Opisthobranchia, Aeolidacea). Venus, The Japanese Journal of Malacology, 59(3): 263-265.
