Ebalia abdominalis Nobili, 1906 View in CoL
Persian Gulf. UAE ( Apel 2001), Iran (present study).
Iran. Hormozgan Province: Qeshm I. (Suza) . Bushehr Province: Bandar Dayyer.
General distribution. Northwestern Indian Ocean: Somalia, Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, Persian Gulf.
Habitat. Sandy intertidal, shallow subtidal.
Remarks. Persian Gulf specimens are fully agreeing with the description and single photo provided by Nobili (1906b: 155–157, pl. 9, fig. 2). The general characteristics of this species look to be very similar to the genus Philyra Leach, 1817 , rather than the genus Ebalia Leach 1817 . An overall revision of the latter genus needs to be done using modern taxonomic characters.
