A Review of the Haliotis rugosa Lamarck, 1822, Complex of the Western Indian Ocean, with Notes on the Subspecific Status of Haliotis multiperforata Reeve, 1846
View through CrossRef
The three taxa Haliotis rugosa rugosa Lamarck, 1822, Haliotis rugosa pustulata Reeve, 1846, and H. rugosa rodriguensis Owen, 2013, are reviewed and illustrated. The confusing taxon Haliotis multiperforata Reeve, 1846, recently discovered to be from eastern Yemen, is validated as a fourth subspecies and is illustrated. Possible explanations for the restricted distribution of this subspecies are also explored. A map of the distribution of these taxa is included.
