[Annelida] Ophelia translucens

[Barbara Mikac]

Dear colleagues,

I am wondering if the species Ophelia translucens (Katzmann, 1973) is  
still considered an endemic species for the Adriatic Sea? As far as I  
can trace its reports until today it was reported only from the  
central Adriatic Sea on sandy and sandy-muddy bottom (Amoureux, 1983b;  
Katzmann, 1973a; 1973d, 1983; Požar-Domac, 1994).

But maybe I miss some of the further reports from the other areas. Do  
you have some insights?

Many thanks,
Barbara
