Description
CRYPTODORIS OSTERGAARD, 1950
Remarks
The name Cryptodoris was introduced by Ostergaard (1950) based on the description of the egg-mass of an unknown animal. No species name was included in the description and no type species was designated, therefore Cryptodoris is not available (ICZN, 1999: Article 13.3). A few years later Ostergaard (1955) described the new species Doridopsis macfarlandi; at the same time he mentioned that ‘the structures of egg filament and veliger larva are figured and described in Ostergaard (1950: 108–109) under Cryptodoris sp’. According to Brodie, Willan & Collins (1997) Doridopsis macfarlandi is a synonym of Dendrodoris nigra (Stimpson, 1855); thus Cryptodoris is a synonym of Dendrodoris Ehrenberg, 1831.
