Title

A new Mediterranean record of the sacoglossan Thuridilla mazda (Mollusca, Gastropoda) with a review of its distribution, biology and ecology

Abstract

The present note reports the second Mediterranean record of the sacoglossan Thuridilla mazda Ortea & Espinosa, 2000. This species, originally described from the Caribbean Sea (West Atlantic), has been, in the last 20 years, reported in two areas of Macaronesia (the Azores and the Canary Islands) and in the westernmost part of the Mediterranean basin. This second Mediterranean record, occurring in the central-eastern coast of Sicily (Ionian Sea), represents another important step in the knowledge of this species. In addition, the note summarizes available information on the distribution, biology and ecology of this species.
