Taxon Notes: | This species has previously been confused with the Atlantic species Aplysilla rosea, particular in several widely used field guides. Any records of Aplysilla rosea from Australia and New Zealand actually refer to Dendrilla rosea. The confusion has not been helped by the fact that both have the same species epitaph! | ||||
