Aplysilla spp.
- Taxon Notes
- This Atlantic species has previously been recorded from southern Australia and New Zealand, but this was a mis-identification of Dendrilla rosea, and Aplysilla rosea is not found in the Indo-Paciic region at all. Any records of this species from this region actually refer to Dendrilla rosea.
