Chelidonura Fulvipunctata
''Biuve fulvipunctata'', the white-speckled headshield slug, is a species of sea slug or headshield slug, a marine opisthobranch gastropod mollusc in the family Aglajidae. This species is widespread in the Indian and Pacific Oceans but has invaded the Mediterranean Sea since 1961, despite apparently being absent from the Red Sea until recorded there in the 21st century. It is the only species in the monotypic genus ''Biuve''. Etymology The former generic name ''Chelidonura'' means "swallow-tail" referring to the two lobes which extend out from the back of the mantle shield, while the specific name ''fulvipunctata'' is a compound meaning tawny or dull yellow (''fulvus'') and spotted (''punctata''). Distribution ''Biuve fulvipunctata'' is widely distributed in the western Pacific from Mexico and Hawaii west to Japan and the east coast of Australia and Lord Howe Island, through Indonesia and the tropical Indian Ocean to the Mascarene Islands, Mozambique and South Africa. It is rare ...

Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=594722 on 2012-06-11 Distribution This species lives from Tanzania to Australia.Rudman W. B. (1998)"''Chelidonura sandrana''" Sea Slug Forum, accessed 25 may 2011. Description Ecology ''Chelidonura sandrana'' is a simultaneously hermaphroditic species. Contrary to classic theoretical predictions, Sprenger et al. (2011) have shown for the first time that the mating rate is largely unresponsive to variations in mate availability in this simultaneous hermaphrodite. With mating rates being close to the female fitness optimum, their findings challenge the prevailing notion of male-driven mating rates in simultaneous hermaphrodites, and call for complementary investigations of ma ...
