? Thelepus setosus (Quatrefages, 1866)

DISTRIBUTION: NA, SA.

LITERATURE RECORDS: Gamulin-Brida et al. 1968; Bellan 1969; Katzmann 1972; Bellan 1976; Požar-Domac 1983, 1994; Zahtila 1995; Zavodnik & Kovačić 2000; Castelli et al. 2008.

NEW RECORDS: BM54.

REMARKS: Although type locality of T. setosus is Arctic Ocean, it was recorded from numerous locations around the world (Pacific, Atlantic, Indian oceans, Mediterranean Sea, Red Sea). However, Hutchings & Glasby (1987) suspect that the species is not as cosmopolitan as would appear from the literature. Additional samples would need to be analysed in order to reveal the identity of T. setosus from the Adriatic Sea, as it might as well represent a different species.

Thelepus triserialis (Grube 1855)

DISTRIBUTION: NA, CA, SA.
