Type species.
Samla annuligera
Bergh, 1900
Diagnosis.
Body narrow. Notal ridge present, discontinuous. Cerata on low elevations. Single precardiac ceratal cluster. Rhinophores perfoliated, shorter than oral tentacles. Anterior foot corners present. Anus pleuroproctic. Rachidian teeth usually with relatively broad non-compressed cusp and distinct denticles, more rarely cusp compressed. Lateral teeth with attenuated process basally. Distal and proximal receptaculum seminis. Short vas deferens distally widens into non-granulated prostate. No external penial collar. Penis indistinct or conical.
Species included.
Samla bicolor
(Kelaart, 1858) (=
Samla annuligera
Bergh, 1900) (Fig. 46) (original description in
Kelaart 1858
;
Bergh 1900b
; redescription in
Gosliner and Willan 1991
),
Samla bilas
(Gosliner & Willan, 1991), comb. n. (original description in
Gosliner and Willan 1991
),
Samla macassarana
(Bergh, 1905), comb. n. (original description in
Bergh 1905
),
Samla riwo
(Gosliner & Willan 1991), comb. n. (original description in
Gosliner and Willan 1991
),
Samla takashigei
sp. n. (Fig. 47). Two more species are tentatively assigned to the genus
Samla
, but their placement needs to be refined using molecular data:
Samla telja
(Marcus & Marcus, 1967), comb. n. (original description in
Marcus and Marcus 1967
) and
Samla rubropurpurata
(Gosliner & Willan, 1991), comb. n. (original description in
Gosliner and Willan 1991
).
