“…Eleven COI sequences obtained from Gen-Bank (10) and BOLD (1) were added to our own data set (179 COI sequences) for a total of 190 sequences. Four COI sequences are from China (Sun et al 2014), two from Singapore (Chang et al 2018), two from Japan (Takagi et al 2019), one from the Persian Gulf (unpublished), one from Gujarat, western India (unpublished), and one from Iran (Maniei et al 2020a). All those sequences were merely referred to as Peronia sp., except for the specimens from China (referred to as Peronia verruculata), the specimen from western India (referred to as Onchidium verruculatum), and the specimen from Iran (recently described as P. persiae, a name regarded here as a synonym of P. verruculata, unit #4).…”

“…2 clade" are included here, which is enough to demonstrate that their two units correspond to our two mitochondrial units #1 and #3 of Peronia verruculata. Also, all COI sequences by Maniei et al (2020a) for P. persiae cluster together within the unit #4 of P. verruculata, so only one of those individuals is included in our analyses: one individual is enough to demonstrate that P. persiae is a junior synonym of P. verruculata. A 16S sequence is available for the individual from Iran (Maniei et al 2020a); no 16S sequences are available for any of the other COI sequences from GenBank and BOLD, so gaps were inserted in the mitochondrial concatenated alignment.…”

“…In order to avoid any future confusion, Labbé's types are commented on in great detail in species descriptions. There are only two of Labbé's species for which no type material could be confidently traced back at the MNHN: Scaphis lata Labbé, 1934a, andParaperonia jousseaumei Labbé, 1934a. Finally, the type material of Peronia persiae, recently described by Maniei et al (2020a), was not borrowed for examination. Regardless, there is no doubt that P. persiae is a junior synonym of both P. verruculata (Cuvier, 1830) and P. gondwanae (Labbé, 1934a) (Table 1), because all the COI and 16S sequences published for P. persiae cluster within the mitochondrial unit #4 of P. verruculata.…”

“…More importantly, 31 species-group names are available for onchidiids with dorsal gills and their exact application has never been addressed. Indeed, the taxonomy of the genus Peronia is so challenging that people have avoided it for decades, and Labbé (1934a) is the last author who created species names for onchidiids with dorsal gills, except for the recent Peronia persiae Maniei et al, 2020a, regarded in the present work as a synonym of P. verruculata. The taxonomy of the genus Peronia is comprehensively revised here for the first time.…”

The genus Peronia Fleming, 1822 includes all the onchidiid slugs with dorsal gills. Its taxonomy is revised for the first time based on a large collection of fresh material from the entire Indo-West Pacific, from South Africa to Hawaii. Nine species are supported by mitochondrial (COI and 16S) and nuclear (ITS2 and 28S) sequences as well as comparative anatomy. All types available were examined and the nomenclatural status of each existing name in the genus is addressed. Of 31 Peronia species-group names available, 27 are regarded as invalid (twenty-one synonyms, sixteen of which are new, five nomina dubia, and one homonym), and four as valid: Peronia peronii (Cuvier, 1804), Peronia verruculata (Cuvier, 1830), Peronia platei (Hoffmann, 1928), and Peronia madagascariensis (Labbé, 1934a). Five new species names are created: P. griffithsi Dayrat & Goulding, sp. nov., P. okinawensis Dayrat & Goulding, sp. nov., P. setoensis Dayrat & Goulding, sp. nov., P. sydneyensis Dayrat & Goulding, sp. nov., and P. willani Dayrat & Goulding, sp. nov.Peronia species are cryptic externally but can be distinguished using internal characters, with the exception of P. platei and P. setoensis. The anatomy of most species is described in detail here for the first time. All the secondary literature is commented on and historical specimens from museum collections were also examined to better establish species distributions. The genus Peronia includes two species that are widespread across the Indo-West Pacific (P. verruculata and P. peronii) as well as endemic species: P. okinawensis and P. setoensis are endemic to Japan, and P. willani is endemic to Northern Territory, Australia. Many new geographical records are provided, as well as a key to the species using morphological traits.

the knowledge of relationships between taxa is essential to understand and explain the chemical diversity of the respective groups. Here, twelve individuals of the panpulmonate slug Peronia persiae from two localities in persian Gulf, and one animal of P. verruculata from Bangka island, indonesia, were analyzed in a phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic framework. Based on the ABGD test and haplotype networking using coi gene sequences of Peronia specimens, nine well-supported clades were found. Haplotype network analysis highlighted a considerable distance between the specimens of P. persiae and other clades. Metabolomic analysis of both species using tandem mass spectrometrybased GnpS molecular networking revealed a large chemical diversity within Peronia of different clades and localities. While P. persiae from different localities showed a highly similar metabolome, only few identical chemical features were found across the clades. the main common metabolites in both Peronia species were assigned as polypropionate esters of onchitriols and ilikonapyrones, and osmoprotectant amino acid-betaine compounds. On the other hand, the isoflavonoids genistein and daidzein were exclusively detected in P. persiae, while cholesterol and conjugated chenodeoxycholic acids were only found in P. verruculata. flavonoids, bile acids, and amino acid-betaine compounds were not reported before from onchidiidae, some are even new for panpulmonates. our chemical analyses indicate a close chemotaxonomic relation between phylogeographically distant Peronia species. Peronia Fleming, 1822, a panpulmonate slug genus, is typically distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the Indo-Pacific ocean 1. The genus Peronia, with ten acknowledged species, has been reported from many localities ranging from the Indo-Pacific to the East Coast of Africa and to Hawaii 2-4. Due to undetected cryptic speciation, species diversity is often underestimated while the widespread distributions attributed to species is often overestimated 5. The integration of molecular and morphological methods has led to numerous discoveries of cryptic species complexes 6. This is also true for the genus Peronia, as was shown by Maniei et al. 3. To date, only three Peronia species are well investigated by molecular and/or morphology data, i.e.

The family Onchidiidae comprises a group of air-breathing marine slugs that can be very abundant in the intertidal zone of temperate shores worldwide. Recently, the phylogeny of the genus Onchidella has been reassessed by means of molecular markers, but anatomical studies are still needed to support these conclusions. In the present work, the anatomy of Onchidella celtica has been studied by using X-ray micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), a non-invasive technique that allows for 2D and 3D imaging of the external and internal anatomy of specimens without irreversible damage. To date, the potential of this technique for the anatomical study of onchidiids had not been assessed yet and therefore a reconstruction of the whole internal anatomy of O. celtica is provided here. Most of the organs and structures were clearly visualized; our observations largely agree with previous descriptions also highlighting the usefulness of micro-CT for the anatomical study of onchidiids.
