Occurrence of the freshwater heteronemertean Apatronemertes albimaculosa (Nemertea: Pilidiophora) in Taiwan

摘要


We report the freshwater heteronemertean Apatronemertes albimaculosa Wilfert & Gibson, 1974 for the first time from Taiwan based on specimens collected under stones and rocks on gravelly bottom near the shore of a brook in Nantun District, Taichung City. Species identification was corroborated by mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene sequences. The species had been reported from aquaria with tropical freshwater plants in Germany, Austria, USA, Spain, and Japan, before it was discovered from wild environment in Panama. Our report represents the second instance of field-caught A. albimaculosa in the world.
