COI gene (MK995377-MK995388), 18S (MK981391-MK981400). Diagnosis. Shell with six plates; rostrum and carina with radii; rostral lateral lacking radii; carinal lateral absent; base membranous; conical spines on cirrus I absent; basal guard on apex setae of cirrus II absent. Description. Shell white to grey, surface with strong, radiating lines, orifice elliptical (Fig. 12a ); parietes solid (Fig. 12b ); scutum triangular, tergal margin straight; tergum triangular, scutal margin curved; conical spines on dorsal side of cirrus I absent, cirrus II with multi-cuspidate setae without basal guard. Basal length 2.4-5.1 mm, basal width 1.4-4.1 mm and height 0.8-1.7 mm. Orifice length 1.0-3.4 mm and orifice width 0.7-1.7 mm (measurements for 25 specimens are presented in Suppl. material 1: Table S11). Figure 12. Chthamalus moro Pilsbry, 1916 (MZB Cru Cir 042-1) a upper view b lower view. Scale bar: 1 mm. Distribution. Chthamalus moro is widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific-Indonesia, Philippines, Taiwan, Xisha Islands, Ryukyu Islands, Palau, Mariana Islands, Caroline Islands, Fiji, and Samoa ( Southward and Newman 2003 ). In this study, C. moro was found on the islands of Ambon (at Hatu, Mamala, Alang, Asilulu, Hila, Morella, Wakasihu), Pombo, Seram (at Murnaten), and Saparua (at Ihamahu, Kulur, and Waisisil) on mangroves, stone, port pole, mollusd shell, shells of Tetraclita squamosa , Tesseropora rosea and Capitulum mitella (a map with the occurrence of Chthamalus moro in the Moluccas is shown in Suppl. material 1: Fig. S3). Remarks. Species of the genus Chthamalus are very difficult to distinguish in the field. Chthamalus moro has a stellate appearance and is smaller than C. malayensis ( Southward and Newman 2003 ). In addition, conical spines on the dorsal side of cirrus I are absent and setae on cirrus II are without basal guards in C. moro .
