Tethys floridensis Pilsbry, 1895 Figure 2 C–E

Tethys floridensis Pilsbry, 1895: 82-83; 1896a, pl. 37, figs 15-19.

Type locality.

Key West, Florida, USA.

Type material.

Syntypes: ANSP A7034, 2 specimens (one 90 mm long preserved, with shell, not dissected; other 76 mm long preserved, shell removed, penis everted) (H. C. Machette, leg. 1893) [1 specimen (Fig. 2C, D), penis not everted; another specimen, penis everted (Fig. 2E)]; ANSP 63529, 1 shell (fragmented, ca 45 mm long).

Remarks.

Pilsbry (1895) stated that "the types are two well preserved alcohol specimens". We judge the original drawing of a whole animal (Pilsbry 1896a: pl. 37, fig. 19) to be a composite of the two specimens.

Current systematic position.

Aplysia fasciata Poiret, 1789 (fide Medina et al. 2005).
