On the Plakobranchidae (Gastropoda, Sacoglossa) from soft sediment habitats of Koh Tao, Gulf of Thailand, with descriptions of two new species

Abstract: Research in recent years have provided rapid advances in biogeographic and taxonomic documentation of sea slugs around the world. However, efforts are lacking in surveying most coastlines and habitats in South-East Asia. Recent studies from the Gulf of Thailand have indicated that a wealth of unexplored sea slug diversity and ecology may be gained from an investigation of soft sediment habitats beyond the reef slopes. Additionally, the waters of Koh Tao have been found to host regionally high levels of sea slu… Show more

“…are often abundant in these areas (Mehrotra et al 2019) as well as bryozoans of the family Bugulidae and other known prey items of sea slugs (McDonald and Nybakken 1997), most of which are either rare or entirely absent from hard substrate habitats around Koh Tao. Indeed, such ecological aspects have already been suggested as key drivers in the description of four new species from the soft sediments of Koh Tao (Mehrotra et al 2017(Mehrotra et al , 2020b.…”
