Notes

Questionable status. Ravara et al. (2010) found morphological differences between European specimens identified as Inermonephtys inermis and the holotype from Florida and established a new species, Inermonephtys foretmontardoi Ravara, Cunha & Pleijel, 2010 for the European populations. Inermonephtys inermis is restricted to the West Atlantic. It is highly likely that Greek specimens of Inermonephtys inermis belong to Inermonephtys foretmontardoi , but no specimens have been re-examined yet for confirmation.
