Primer registro de Corambe obscura (Nudibranchia: Corambidae) para la costa atlántica mexicana

Abstract

Se registra por primera vez la presencia del nudibranquio Corambe obscura para una laguna costera de México. El espécimen se encontró en la laguna de Tampamachoco, Veracruz, sobre colonias de briozoos incrustados en raíces sumergidas de mangle rojo. El nudibranquio presentó un tamaño de 5.6 mm de longitud y 3 mm de ancho; es de color amarillo con manchas marrones en el notum y carece de muesca en el notum posterior. El presente registro aumenta el ámbito de distribución original de C. obscura hacia el suroeste del golfo de México.

Updated list and new records of sea slugs (Gastropoda: Heterobranchia) in the Lobos-Tuxpan Reef System, Mexico

“…On the other hand, for the Tuxpan and Oro Verde reefs there are recent reports that provide the first record of 11 species of sea slugs (De la Cruz-Francisco et al, 2017b). It is worth mentioning that near LTRS, many species of sea slugs have been reported for the Tampamachoco lagoon (De la Cruz-Francisco et al, 2020a) and for the rocky coast of Cazones, Veracruz (De la Cruz-Francisco et al, 2017a). Although the current information on sea slugs for LTRS is valuable, it is still necessary to unify it and update it with new unpublished data.…”
