status

 

Philyra concinnus Ghani & Tirmizi, 1995

Persian Gulf. Saudi Arabia ( Apel 2001), UAE [ Cooper (1997) as Ebalia ? sagittifera ; Apel (2001)], Iran [ Stephensen (1946) as Philyra sexangula ; present study].

Iran. Hormozgan Province: Bandar-Kolahi , E. of Bandar Abbas . Bushehr Province: Bushehr (Jofreh).

General distribution. Northwestern Indian Ocean: Persian Gulf, Pakistan.

Habitat. Sandy/muddy-sand intertidal.

Remarks. Apel (2001) mentioned that the part of the material from the Persian Gulf identified as Philyra concinnus Ghani & Tirmizi (1995) clearly belongs to Ebalia sagittifera , not to the new species introduced by them. Stephensen’s (1946) material of Philyra sexangula has been re-examined by Apel (2001) and identified as P. concinnus . We examined the Stephensen’s (1946) material again and can support the identification of Apel (2001).
