Taxon Notes:

After Imamura & Moore (2020) resurrected L. semermis from the synonymy of L. inops, the distribution for Leviprora inops was redefined. Leviprora inops is known from Swan River, WA (31 45 S, 115 48 E) eastwards to St Vincent Gulf and south of Kangaroo Island, SA (137 E) in 1.6-18.3m depth.
