Taxonomic note<\/strong>: The phylogenetic analyses performed by Cella et al. (2016) revealed that the traditional Tergipedidae family is polyphyletic and belongs to a larger monophyletic clade including members of the traditional families Eubranchidae, Fionidae and Calmidae; this was an unexpected result, since the validity of these taxa and their distinctness from the Tergipedidae was never questioned before. They proposed to join the families Tergipedidae, Eubranchidae, Calmidae and Fionidae under the name of Fionidae. This decision has been reinterpreted and completed in the paper by Korshunova et al. (2017) because it obviated evident morphological and molecular aspects.<\/p>Many authors (Picton, B. in Sea Slug Forum, 2005; Evertsen, J. in Sea Slug Forum, 2005) think that this species is a junior synonym of Eubranchus vittatus<\/em>, as both species are very similar and conform to the description by Alder and Hancock (1847). However, it is still considered a valid species, at least until its identity is confirmed by molecular methods.<\/p>\n
