摘要

Abstract

During an expedition to a seamount at Caroline Plate in the tropical Western Pacific

a new species of

Tritonia

was sampled from the upper bathyal zone at depth of 970-1 262 m. This new species

Tritonia iocasica

sp. nov.

represents the first tritoniid nudibranch known to feed on octocoral of the family Melithaeidae. The species is up to 120 mm in length

pinkish in color; with the rhinophoral sheath divided into several petaliform extensions; veil with about 18 elongate digitiform processes; notal margin with 17-19 pairs of secondary gills; anus located below the 5

and 6

secondary gills

and the genitalia below the 3

secondary gill on the right side of the body. Based on these external features

T. iocasica

sp. nov. can be clearly distinguished from all previously described members of the genus. Phylogenetic analyses of two mitochondrial (COI

16S rRNA) and a nuclear (H3) genes using Bayesian inference

maximum likelihood

and species delimitation analysis also support the separation of

T. iocasica

sp. nov. from its congeners.
