Molecular work (Jensen et al. 2014b) has shown that specimens identified as Costasiella kuroshimae or C. cf. kuroshimae actually make up numerous distinct species that currently await description. Research carried out on specimens from Koh Tao (Mehrotra et al. 2019) indicates that this species is palatable to some scleractinian corals and, based on natural observations, may be viable prey for the free-living coral Heteropsammia cochlea (Spengler, 1781), in soft sediment habitats.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/2EA91BF292335FFDB9F5EFD728D71AD5	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Recent evidence (Bazzicalupo et al. 2020) has supported the presence of a second species, B. ocelligera, based on internal morphological differences such as an unarmed penis and supported by molecular data. This name was attributed to specimens described from the Gulf of Thailand by Bergh (1902), who was the first to describe specimens with an unarmed penis. At present, there is no reliable way of discerning between the two species based on external morphology alone, and no available molecular data for specimens from the Gulf of Thailand. The internal anatomy of specimens from Koh Tao could not be investigated as part of the present study; however, the proximity to the type locality (Koh Chang) supports the need for comprehensive analyses of specimens from the Gulf of Thailand in particular, given the wide geographical range of B. leachii and the recent separation of other ‘circumtropical’ aplysiids.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/55ABA1A32CFA5E5E85A9D6D7C1E91A9C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Both species share external similarities, in particular the presence of a brown spot or ‘hole’ found centrally on the dorsum, and the need for clarification between both species has been noted (Gosliner et al. 2008; Rudman 2009b). The present species is most similar to Berthella sp. 1 of Gosliner et al. (2018).

While C. mandapamensis has been suggested as a possible synonym of G. pruna as discussed in Tibiriçá et al. (2017), the present species is kept separate from C. mandapamensis due to difference in the local ecology of both species. Chromodoris mandapamensis is locally recorded only from sparse observations at offshore pinnacles, with no confirmed records for the past five years, whereas C. cf. mandapamensis is regularly found in surveys in shallow reef areas near the shore. While it is possible that this species undergoes its juvenile stages closer to shore before moving out towards the offshore pinnacles, no observations have been made of this species in the intervening deeper soft sediment habitats between the two. Additionally, no individuals larger than approximately 15 mm have been recorded and no individuals that externally match C. mandapamensis have yet been recorded near the island.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/A3EDECF2D08B5525AC1DCD9D53EF9DD8	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This species was differentiated from the similar Chromodoris striatella Bergh, 1877 based on these and other features (Layton et al. 2018; Bonomo and Gosliner 2020). Our specimen is differentiated from C. balat by lacking small yellow, orange, and red spots on the white parts of the dorsal surface, the pale tan-coloured gills with orange spots instead of red-brown as seen in C. balat, and by the blotches being pale grey-brown and indistinct instead of dark and pronounced. The indistinct blotches on the dorsum, the broken yellow-orange marginal band, and the colouration of rhinophores and gills do share a resemblance with C. mandapamensis and C. cf. mandapamensis (the latter of which may be found living alongside C. cf. balat at Koh Tao). Given the difficulties of relying on external features for species delineation in many of these striped and spotted species of Chromodoris (Layton et al. 2018; Bonomo and Gosliner 2020) we refrain from committing to a species identification until specimens from Koh Tao can be investigated further. Chavanich et al. (2013) recorded C. striatella from both Gulf and Andaman coasts of Thailand; however, in the absence of specimen details from both areas, this distribution record may be called into question in light of the recent findings regarding the complex surrounding C. striatella. Further documentation of Chromodoris species from both coasts may clarify this.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/E89866363B0554DC97CBD374513EB9BF	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Hypselodoris obscura is known to be a sub-tropical species from eastern Australia (Epstein et al. 2018) while H. infucata is known to be widespread across the Indo-Pacific; therefore, records from the Gulf of Thailand by Chavanich et al. (2013) are likely to be H. infucata. Review of photographs used in the initial identifications supports this clarification, but also suggest that the species called Hypselodoris infucata found to be present on both coasts may or may not be the true H. infucata. A closer investigation on the distribution of Hypselodoris species across both coasts is needed to confirm its range in Thai waters.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/DBCB664EC11652F38753B6138E597061	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

These include the absence of any brown spots along the dorsum and rhinophores that are not uniformly yellow-orange but instead have translucent stalks and abruptly transition from a yellow base to a white apex, separated by a thin brown median line. These subtle differences may be found to be within the variability of the species and cannot be confirmed without a closer investigation.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/5BD60FBE38545621A29824AE0276A387	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

In general, the dorsal surface is always white with scattered and slightly raised spots. While many individuals bear the deep blue to black 'longitudinal streaks’ along the central dorsal surface, in others these are broken lines or even entirely disconnected spots of varying sizes. Rhinophore clubs range from entirely orange to white with orange apices, stalks always translucent white. The blue marginal band is always separated from the yellow submarginal band by the same white as the dorsum, and both bands are often broken or rows of pigmented spots, matching variation in the dark pigmentation. There are always deep blue-black spots between marginal and submarginal bands/rows, that may vary in size and often extend to the mantle edge. While closer examination may reveal individuals from Koh Tao and the nearby pinnacles to be more than one species, the population is here treated as a single variable species.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/877CDF1F90415001B478E7E31FB0DC8A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

It should also be noted that the plate supplementing the original description of the species shows gills in a circular arrangement and seemingly plumose rather than reduced and club shaped. While the species is known to be parasite of gobies (Osumi and Yamasu 1994), all observations from Koh Tao were not in the vicinity of any demersal fish, including any in the family Gobiidae. Ongoing searches of gobies from both soft sediment and coral reef habitats have thus far revealed no observations of parasitic nudibranchs.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/1DD747CCE4715907854484BAF26E4ADE	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Specimens recorded from Koh Tao range in colour from near colourless to strongly golden brown, although always at least slightly transparent. The body is covered in numerous small papillae, the oral hood is able to stretch to at least half of the length of the remaining body, which have four or five pairs of cerata. Cerata are mostly ovoid to cylindrical in shape, terminating in numerous large pointed white papillae. In smaller individuals, two papillae may dominate the apex of each ceras giving them a bifurcate appearance. Most intriguingly and substantially different from the morphology of M. engeli are the rhinophore sheaths which lack the ‘sail-like’ appendage but instead have a single long and thin almost ‘whip-like’ extension. While the overall body shape of M. engeli has been shown to go through numerous changes during development (Burghardt and Wägele 2014), the specimens from Koh Tao do not entirely match M. engeli.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/12836056638F5342BD2FCED7D38DB58C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

A similar species is here recorded for the first time from Thai waters.</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>Specimens from Koh Tao strongly resemble Coryphellina lotos; however, a few differences may indicate a possible cryptic species. While C. lotos is described as light violet with parts of the rhinophores, oral tentacles, and cerata apices as lilac to reddish lilac (Korshunova et al. 2017a: fig. 38A-E), specimens from Koh Tao appear have a background colour ranging from almost colourless to pale blue-violet, with rhinophore apices and subterminal bands on oral tentacles and cerata being a much deeper purple than the reddish violet of C. lotos. Most distinctive, however, is the presence of a mid-dorsal deep purple line which remains continuous in some specimens, entirely broken or limited to the oral surface in others, and completely absent in yet other specimens. The same pattern seen (if present) in the dorsal line is often mimicked laterally on both sides of some specimens. While no mention of dorsal or lateral linear pigmentation was made in the description of the species, these lines are visible in images provided supplementing the description (Korshunova et al. 2017a: fig. 38A-C). Erroneously identified as Flabellina rubrolineata by Mehrotra and Scott (2016), the true identity of which has recently been shown to be restricted to its type locality in the Red Sea (Ekimova et al. 2020; Yonow 2020).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/DD444748A3645FDEA28B24630E81C8FB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Also observed from shallow coral reef habitats, rarely. Depth 0.5-6 m.</p> <p>Distribution.</p> <p>Elysia marginata is at present recorded from the Indo-Pacific including Myanmar (Sanpanich and Duangdee 2019), Vietnam (Martynov and Korshunova 2012), Indonesia (Yonow and Jensen 2018), Australia (Nimbs and Smith 2016), Japan, Guam, French Polynesia, Vanuatu, and Hawaii (Krug et al. 2013). Specimens from South Africa, Madagascar, and Réunion (Gosliner et al. 2008 as Elysia ornata) also are likely to correspond to this complex. Known from the Andaman waters of Thailand (Jensen 1992), here representing a first record for the Gulf of Thailand.</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>Recent molecular investigations (Krug et al. 2013) have indicated up to four possible clades making up the species Elysia marginata, that was separated from its Caribbean counterpart Elysia ornata (Swainson, 1840), which was formerly considered circumtropical. Yonow and Jensen (2018) further discuss the challenges in assigning all specimens with the ‘characteristic’ orange and black marginal bands on the parapodia to E. marginata as similar species such as E. faustula Bergh, 1871 and E. grandifolia Kelaart, 1858 were described and illustrated with comparable features. Both aforementioned species differ in ground colour or the presence/absence of denticulation on radular teeth, and both of these features have been shown to be variable within a single species and often a single specimen (Mehrotra et al. 2020b).

Recent works (Yonow and Jensen 2018; Papu et al. 2020) have highlighted the significant variability of specimens ascribed to the species and questioned the synonymisation of multiple white-striped species of Thuridilla (Gosliner 1995; Rudman 2000b) under the single species T. gracilis. Indications suggest that the breadth of specimens currently considered as T. gracilis encompass a complex of species (Händeler and Wägele 2007; Yonow and Jensen 2018; Papu et al. 2020) that requires a comprehensive analysis utilising both morphological and molecular means. Specimens from Koh Tao do not possess any blue markings, instead being closer to the original description and illustration of T. gracilis in possessing a thin orange-red marginal band along the parapodia that meets medially and having the white lines often extending to the tips of the rhinophores. Papu et al. (2020) provided photographs highlighting the external variability on the heads of specimens from Bangka, Indonesia suggesting possible diagnostic value. As such, we have emulated this and provided the range of variation visible in the heads of adult specimens from Koh Tao (Fig. 5).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/A2AD99A322DD5AD9AF019EBED097B161	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Depth 24 m.</p> <p>Distribution.</p> <p>Currently known only from the Gulf of Thailand, documented here for the first time.</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>Ortea Rato et al. (2014) described the genus Migaya to hold all the Caribbean and Indo-Pacific cephalaspideans that were found to cluster (subclade B.2.) with Aglaja felis Er. Marcus &amp; Ev. Marcus, 1970 in the molecular phylogeny inferred by Camacho-García et al. (2013). These authors transferred A. felis to the genus Nakamigawaia Kuroda &amp; Habe, 1961 based on the apparently wide distribution of A. felis in the Indo-Pacific, assuming that they could only belong to the Japanese genus Nakamigawaia because of the similarities in their external morphology and colouration, but they did not include representatives of the type species of the genus, N. spiralis Kuroda &amp; Habe, 1961, in their study, nor any other co-generic species coming from Japan. Ortea Rato et al. (2014) compared the shells N. spiralis with those of A. felis in the context of a wide-range shell comparison including all the Aglajidae, and concluded that both species belonged to different genera, consequently describing the genus Migaya. Afterwards, Zamora-Silva and Malaquias (2018) published a new molecular phylogeny based on a wider taxonomical sampling within the Aglajidae in which they synonymised the genus Migaya and transferred A. felis to the genus Nakamigawaia. Again, these authors did not include representatives of N. spiralis from Japan, but similar species from Australia and Papua New Guinea, without checking their internal anatomies. For these reasons, given the high rate of endemicity of the Japanese sea slugs, and after the study of the shell of the specimen from Thailand (bearing a similar shell to that of M. felis), we prefer to maintain the genus Migaya until representatives of N. spiralis from Japan are sequenced and compared in a phylogenetic context.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/FA250F23BCE75E43872EFE0ABC3F2D1E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

A very similar looking specimen from Vietnam was identified as Hoplodoris bifurcata by Martynov and Korshunova (2012: pl. 31E). However, see discussions regarding Carminodoris pustulata (Abraham, 1877) by Jensen (1994), Yonow et al.

Platydoris cinereobranchiata Dorgan et al., 2002 is known from the Philippines, Australia, the Solomon Islands (Gosliner et al. 2008), and Indonesia (Yonow 2011). Neither species has yet been documented in Thai waters.</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>Externally, the specimens bear similarity to Platydoris formosa, as detailed by Dorgan et al. (2002) although differ in numerous ways. The rhinophores of the present species are yellow to pale brown, sometimes with red spots near the apex, with no black spots between them. Rhinophores have 33-35 lamellae. The gills are grey with dark brownish red lines running along the rachises, with no black spots anterior to the gill sheath. A white ring is present around the rims of the rhinophore and gill sheaths. Most of the caryophyllidia covering the dorsum are a dark reddish colour with a few white patches randomly distributed. Larger bright red patches are more numerous and also randomly distributed across the dorsal surface. Ventrally white with large red spots which become more diffuse and concentrated towards the foot. Based on these characteristics, it appears that the specimens from Koh Tao bear characteristics of both P. formosa and P. cinereobranchiata.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/FBFF0F680C4C569B9616BF6A7AFDC7F9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The dorsal colour is a bright orange with numerous rounded or conical tubercles covering the surface, many capped in white. The Y-shaped marking between the rhinophores to in front of the gills is made up of purple tubercles and the rhinophore club is a pale brown with white edges of lamellae. As above, this variation in colouration may yet be considered to be within what can be found in Doris immonda Risbec, 1928.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/CFCAFE4CE2BA56A290646138FE147E86	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Specimens of Dermatobranchus sp. 1 externally appear to have characteristics of D. fasciatus and D. semilunus. All specimens have prominent longitudinal ridges on a generally white dorsum, with numerous black spots of varying sizes distributed along the ridges and margin of the oral veil. The oral veil always has patches of grey and the margin is sometimes pigmented with a yellow-pink band which is often pale or completely absent in some specimens. The dorsal surface usually has a single horizontal diffuse band approximately one third of the total animal length. The foot is pale pink to white, sometimes with numerous small black spots. The rhinophores have white tips, dark clubs with white lines along the lamellae, and white stalks with dark grey pigment along the inner edge of the stalks often forming a dark grey band in between and anterior to the rhinophores.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/6455592634995774ABFD2FC62B1C9FA1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Purple/red morphs in soft sediment habitats outside the coral reef where it is found strongly associated with mats of cyanobacteria on the benthos. Purple/red morphs (Fig. 7C, D) may also be found near the reef edge when cyanobacteria abundances increase, indicating a possible seasonal influence in abundance. Often found together with other Haminoeidae species from Koh Tao, apart from Atys sp. White and purple/red morphs not found together suggesting a fundamental division in local ecology (i.e., diet), potentially contributing to the difference in colouration. Specimens from Koh Tao have been observed to be ingested, and sometimes rejected post-ingestion, by the wrasses Cheilinus fasciatus (Bloch, 1791) and Thalassoma lunare (Linnaeus, 1758). This method of prey rejection has been suggested as a vector for prey dispersal of sea slugs onto opportunistic predatory scleractinian corals (Mehrotra et al. 2019).

It is here recorded for the first time from Thai waters.</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>With the recent comprehensive review of the genus Lamprohaminoea (Oskars and Malaquias 2020), specimens from Koh Tao were identified as L. ovalis. This identification was based on shell morphology and external colouration, the variability of both now being well documented. Despite specimens from Koh Tao being from the same species, the different morphs have been found to exhibit distinct ecological characteristics.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/A780700767025D2EAD6BB6501A184BB4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Unconfirmed sightings have also been made from Mozambique and Myanmar (iNaturalist 2011; TSS 2020). Here representing a first record for Thai waters (but see below).</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>Specimens from Koh Tao differ from those originally described by lacking orange spots across the dorsum, instead having only two tiny orange spots on the anterior portion of the head, on either side of the mouth. Additionally, the body is uniformly deep reddish brown with a thin white line on the upper margin of the cephalic shield. In the larger specimen (74 mm), both orange spots and the white line were markedly less distinct. The presence and absence of yellow/orange spots in such Aglajids has been shown to be an unreliable character for species delimitations (Turner and Wilson 2012). To date, C. castanea is only known from the Indian Ocean; however, a distribution from Thailand was recorded, without reference to any source, by Gosliner et al. (2008) but omitted in later versions (Gosliner et al. 2018). Therefore, we hereby provide details of a similar species from the Gulf of Thailand waters as a first record.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/8DA68F1492905428BC3681B87685A82A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
