Thor cf. paschalis (Heller, 1862)
Material. 11females & 4males ( ZUTC 6835 ), southeast Hormuz Island, Persian Gulf , 27° 2’47.26”N, 56°29’42.29”E, rocky/sandy with boulders/cobbles and corals, 30.04.2017, coll. H. Ashrafi & S. Sharifi. GoogleMaps
Habitat and habit. Material of the Persian Gulf was found under cobbles in intertidal and shallow subtidal zones.
General distribution. Indo-West Pacific.
Remarks. Thor paschalis is related to seagrass and algae ( Chace, 1997) while specimens of the present study are free living. In addition, color pattern of these two is different. Still, more study needs to be conducted in order to find the taxonomic state of the Persian Gulf’s material.
