Remarks.

Some of these species are insufficiently described (e.g., Flabellina alternata Ortea & Espinosa, 1998, Flabellina llerae Ortea, 1989) whilst some others have been described in detail (e.g., Flabellina engeli lucianae DaCosta, Cunha, Simone & Schrödl, 2007), but in the absence of the molecular data in this case, we prefer not to assign these species into particular genera. Most likely, more new genera need to be created for some of these species.
