[1055332<\/a>]<\/p><\/div>Taxonomic note<\/strong>:<\/em> Originally published in many websites as Philine aperta<\/em> (Linnaeus, 1767), it has changed to Philinopsis miqueli<\/em> Pelorce, Horst & Hoarau, 2013 and, later, to\u00a0Melanochlamys miqueli<\/em> (see Zamora-Silva & Malaquias, 2017). Both species are differentiated by their geographical area, M.miqueli<\/em> is Mediterranean while P.aperta<\/em> is located in South Africa (Price, Gosliner Vald\u00e9s 2011). M.miqueli<\/em>\u00a0can also be confused with\u00a0Philine quadripartita<\/em> but physically Philine<\/em> is larger (up to 70mm against 13mm for M.miqueli<\/em>), it has a trapezoidal shaped body rather than cylindrical, the edge of the parapodia are\u00a0not<\/strong> coloured bright white and the parapodia are separated from the body.<\/p>\n
