Yanez-Rivera and Salazar-Vallejo (2011) , based on morphological investigations of fixed and living specimens, resurrected Hermodice nigrolineata Baird, 1868 for the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean populations of the species. Ahrens et al. (2013) found no genetic differences between Hermodice carunculata populations of the Caribbean and the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean and placed Hermodice nigrolineata again into synonymy with Hermodice carunculata . The findings of Chatzigeorgiou et al. (2014) concerning the phylogenetic relationships of the eastern Mediterranean populations of Hermodice carunculata support the results of Ahrens et al. (2013) .
