APLYSIA CONCAVA G. B. SOWERBY I, 1833 View in CoL

Aplysia concava G. B. Sowerby I, 1833: 243 View in CoL , pl. 235 (155), fig. 3. Type locality: Not stated. Type: Probably lost, not found at NHMUK (A. Salvador, pers. comm.).

Remarks

Sowerby I (1833) proposed the name Aplysia concava based on a figure of a shell with no description and no locality. Eales (1960) considered A. concava a synonym of A. parvula . The shell of this species, illustrated in ventral view and depicted in black and white [ Sowerby I, 1833: pl. 235 (155), fig.3], is similar to shells of several species in Aplysia parvula s.l. and it is impossible for us to match it with any particular taxon. Therefore, we regard A. concava as a taxon inquirendum.
