Piseinotecus gabinieri from Mediterranean

September 15, 2000
From: Erwin Koehler

Dear Bill,
Here is Piseinotecus gabinieri which is spelt this way in C.L.E.M.A.M. and in the Annotated Check-List of Mediterranean Marine Mollusks by Bruno Sabelli et. al. In the Atlas of Mediterranean Nudibranchs by Cattaneo-Vietti et. al. and in Opisthobranchia des Mittelmeeres by Schmekel and Portman it is spelt Piseinotecus gabinierei. Which one is the correct spelling?

Thanks Erwin,
I have found the title of the reference:
• Vicente, N. (1975) Un nouveau espece de gasteropode nudibranche en Mediterrnaee Facelina gabinieri n.sp. Trav. Sci. Parc. Nat. Port. Cros., 1: 67-74

This spells the name without the 'e'. Unfortunately I don't have access the text of the article. In Schmekel & Portman, who spell it Piseinotecus gabinierei, they also refer to it as Piseinotecus gabinieri in the description. Hopefully one of our Mediterranean colleagues can clarify it for us.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
