Paleracio. Type locality Aphol’s Reef, Tingloy, Maricaban Island, Batangas, Philippines. Geographical distribution Known from Indonesia and the Philippines (Gosliner et al., 2008). Etymology: Hypselodoris iba is named for the Tagalog word iba, meaning different or distinctive. Description External morphology: Living animals (Fig. 14) large, reaching 70 mm in length. Body wide, tapering to narrow, rounded posterior end of notum. Foot wide, elongate posteriorly. Gill with six to eight unipinnate branches. Gill branches with white pigment at base, becoming orange in outer portion. Gill pocket well elevated from notum. Rhinophores with 20 – 24 lamellae. Colour pattern occurs in two distinct morphs. In first morph, body generally uniformly purple, with uniformly wide opaque white marginal band or occasionally orange band. Rhinophores uniformly orange, with orange or purple pigment on base of rhinophore sheaths. Second morph generally off-white to beige, with thin white marginal band, transitioning to orange anteriorly and posteriorly. Submarginal blood red band may be present, transitioning to purple anteriorly. Blood red blotches present on central region of notum, on base of gill pocket and base of rhinophore sheaths. purple band present near opening of rhinophore sheaths. Blood red blotches may also be present on lateral faces of body. Wide purple band present along lateral margin of foot. Mantle glands: Subcutaneous mantle glands large and concentrated posteriorly, with 12 – 16 glands. Smaller, irregularly distributed glands present along lateral and anterior margins (Fig. 2 F). Buccal armature: Muscular portion of buccal mass about the same size as the length of oral tube. Chitinous labial cuticle found at anterior end of muscular portion of the buccal mass bearing numerous jaw rodlets (Fig. 15 A). Rodlets narrow, triangular with short base and evenly curved, with single, acutely pointed apex. Radular formula of two paratypes 63 × 98.0.98 (CASIZ 177777) and 66 × 88.0.88 (CASIZ 180419). Rachidian row of teeth absent (Fig. 15 B, C). Innermost lateral teeth lacking inner denticles or having single acutely pointed denticle on inner side of bifid primary cusp. Outer surface of inner lateral without outer lateral denticles. Next several laterals (Fig. 15 D, E) and all but outermost lateral teeth with only a bifid primary cusp. Outer cusp much shorter than inner cusp. Outermost teeth having a narrower base and shorter tooth shape, with zero to two rounded outer denticles (Fig. 15 F) below bifid cusps. Reproductive system: Reproductive organs (Fig. 13 B) of two paratypes fully mature (CASIZ 177777 and CASIZ 180419). Ampulla thick, tubular and slightly curved, narrowing somewhat before bifurcating into oviduct and vas deferens. Short oviduct entering female gland mass near albumen gland. Prostatic proximal portion of vas deferens curved and thick and narrowing slightly as it transitions into muscular, ejaculatory portion. Prostatic portion enveloping bursa copulatrix. Ejaculatory portion moderately to highly convoluted, narrow, entering short, wider penial bulb. Penial bulb adjacent to slightly curved, moderately wide vaginal duct at common gonopore. Distal end of vas deferens devoid of penial hooks. Female gland mass consisting of large mucous gland and small membrane and albumen glands. Large, lobate vestibular gland situated near exit of mucous gland. Relatively long, wide vagina leading to small, curved receptaculum seminis and larger spherical, thin-walled receptaculum seminis. Receptaculum seminis appressed against vagina immediately below bursa copulatrix. Moderately long uterine duct emerging from vagina close to base of bursa and female gland mass, near the albumen gland. Remarks This species has been considered as a synonym of H. bullockii (Humann & DeLoach, 2010) or as an undescribed species (Debelius & Kuiter, 2007; Gosliner et al., 2008, 2015). This has been complicated further by the fact that H. iba has two distinct colour morphs, and one of them is also similar to H. variobranchia sp. nov. described here. For a detailed comparison, see the remarks on H. variobranchia sp. nov. The most reliable way to distinguish H. iba from members of the H. bullockii clade is by the presence of mantle glands in H. iba. No members of the H. bullockii clade have mantle glands (present study). The two colour morphs have been observed copulating with each other (Fig. 14 C; Köhler, 2002). Not only are the two colour morphs observed copulating, but they show very little genetic divergence. The holotype (CASIZ 177511), a light morph specimen, is only 0.3 % different in its COI gene from a purple morph specimen from the same locality (CASIZ 180419), and a third specimen (CASIZ 177777, also a light morph) from the same locality is 0.6 % different from the other two. The subsequent ABGD analysis confirms that these three specimens are conspecific with each other and distinct from all other species.	en	Epstein, Hannah E., Hallas, Joshua M., Johnson, Rebecca Fay, Lopez, Alessandra, Gosliner, Terrence M.

Geographical distribution Known from Indonesia and the Philippines (Debelius & Kuiter, 2007; present study). Etymology Hypselodoris roo comes from the A. A. Milne character Roo, the kangaroo whose mother is Kanga. This species is named H. roo, because it has often been mistaken for H. kanga. Description External morphology: Living animals (Fig. 18 H – J) moderately large, reaching 45 mm in length. Body colour whitish to grey – blue. Sides of body high, with narrow mantle margin tapering posteriorly into rounded lobe.

Mantle glands: Subcutaneous mantle glands variable in distribution (Fig. 2 M). Posterior glands always present; lateral glands always absent; anterior glands present or absent. This arrangement was based on seven specimens examined, four of which had both anterior and posterior mantle glands and three that lacked anterior glands. Buccal armature: Muscular portion of buccal mass somewhat larger than length of oral tube. Chitinous labial cuticle found at anterior end of muscular portion of the buccal mass bearing numerous jaw rodlets (Fig. 24 A). Rodlets narrow with short base and evenly curved, with single, acutely pointed apex. Radula broad, nearly as wide as long. Radular formula of holotype (CASIZ 191070) 71 × 79.0.79. Rachidian row of teeth absent (Fig. 24 B). Innermost lateral teeth having irregular triangular denticle on inner side of bifid primary cusp. Denticles absent from outer side of tooth.

038C8791490DFFB3FCF3FD1EFAA28DF7.taxon	description	There are also clear anatomical differences between H. roo, H. confetti, H. kanga and H. infucata. All four species have bluish pigment and yellow spots. In H. roo and H. infucata, the markings on the gill branches are red, whereas they are deep blue in H. kanga and H. confetti. In H. infucata, the red pigment on the gills is found on the gill rachis and pinnae, whereas in H. roo there is red pigment on the inner gill rachis and in two lines on the outer edge, with red and opaque white markings in between the two outer lines. The rhinophores of H. roo have an opaque white spot on the inner side of the base that is absent in H. infucata. The sides of the body of H. roo are higher than in H. infucata, and the mantle margin is narrower. Also, H. infucata has a broad posterior end of the notum rather than a tapered posterior lobe found in H. roo. There are differences in the arrangement of mantle glands in the species within this clade. In H. roo and H. zephyra there are usually anterior and posterior mantle glands, but anterior glands may also be lacking in some specimens of H. roo. Hypselodoris confetti and H. nigrostriata have mantle glands all around the mantle margin, whereas H. kanga has only posterior glands. The shape of the jaw rodlets and radular teeth is also similar in H. roo, H. zephyra, H. confetti and H. kanga, but the number of teeth varies slightly. As noted above, in the reproductive system of H. confetti the receptaculum seminis is situated immediately adjacent to the bursa copulatrix, whereas in H. roo, H. zephyra and H. nigrostriata, it is situated more proximally on the vagina (Rudman, 1977; Gosliner & Johnson 1999; present study).	en	Epstein, Hannah E., Hallas, Joshua M., Johnson, Rebecca Fay, Lopez, Alessandra, Gosliner, Terrence M.
