Habitat. Rocky/cobble intertidal to 100 m.
Remarks. Thalamita giardi Nobili, 1905 , was described by Nobili (1905a) from the Persian Gulf in UAE, which is thought being a junior subjective synonym of Gonioinfradens paucidentata (A. Milne-Edwards, 1981) (see Leene 1938; Crosnier 1962; Apel & Spiridonov 1998). Apel & Spiridonov (1982) mentioned this fact because the juvenile specimens of G. paucidentata may lack one or two additional small spines on the anterolateral margin, therefore could be easily misidentified as Thalamita .
