Neotype from Genoa, Italy. Simboura and Nicolaidou (2001) report Ophryotrocha puerilis from Greece at species level, as it is reported on other parts of the Mediterranean as well ( Castelli et al. 2008 , Cinar et al. 2014 , Nunez et al. 2013 , Mikac 2015 ). However, Taboada et al. (2017) provide molecular evidence of at least two cryptic species under the name Ophryotrocha puerilis in the Mediterranean Sea.
