| Abstract |
Two new species of Phyllidia from North Sulawesi, Indonesia, Phyllidia fontjei sp. nov. and Phyllidia ovata sp. nov., are described based on morphology and molecular barcoding of CO1 and/or 16S. Both species are rare and distinctive and can be easily recognised by their colouration. Additionally, histological sections were made of the holotype of Phyllidia fontjei sp. nov. and a similarly sized Phyllidia ocellata and these morphologies are compared with the only other detailed histological examination of the Mediterranean Phyllidia flava. |
