Gourretia coolibah Poore & Griffin, 1979

Persian Gulf. Qatar ( Dworschak 2009), Iran ( Sepahvand & Sari 2010).

Iran. Hormozgan Province: Qeshm I. (desalination center).

General distribution. Indo-West Pacific: Persian Gulf, Australia (Western Australia).

Habitat. Muddy-sand intertidal.

Remarks. Gourretia coolibah has been described by Poore & Griffin (1979) on the basis of a single female from Western Australia. Dworschak (2009) recorded this species from Qatar in the Persian Gulf and provided a detailed description and illustrations of the specimens. He recorded the first male of the species. Sepahvand & Sari (2010) recorded G. coolibah from Qeshm I. at the Iranian coast, but we did not get a chance to collect this species ourselves.
