Notes

Licher (1999) considers the species as valid, but notes that the characteristic black colour of the dorsal cirri may disappear in ethanol-preserved specimens which would make an unambiguous identification difficult. Greek records are all from before 1987 and were probably identified using Fauvel (1923); the increased use of the keys by San Martín (1984) and San Martín (2003) which do not contain the species could explain the absence of records since then. Type locality: Mediterranean (Adriatic).
