EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN OPISTHOBRANCHIA: RUNCINIDAE (RUNCINACEA), WITH A REVIEW OF RUNCINID CLASSIFICATION AND A DESCRIPTION OF A NEW SPECIES FROM FIJI

An account is given of the runcinaceans Runcina adriatica, R. brenkoae and R. zavodniki collected on diving expeditions in the northern Adriatic Sea. The new data permit a clear separation of these from other runcinaceans of the north Atlantic Ocean. Several diagnostic features of the radulae and th...
