OTHER REPORTED NAMES: Heterocirrus saxicola, Grube 1855 .

REMARKS: Uncertain presence in the Mediterranean Sea. At least part of the records refer probably to the species Dodecaceria saxicola (Grube, 1855), to D. sextentaculata (Delle Chiaje, 1822), or to both (Castelli et al. 2008). Identification of the specimens examined by the author is uncertain and needs to be verified. DEPOSITED MATERIAL: BM1, 0 2.08.2007., 7 spec. (PMR-17643). BM53, 13.07.2003., 1 spec. (PMR-17640).
