Thanks Nishina,
Concerning the difference between Berthelinia schlumbergeri and Tamanovalva limax all I can do is refer you to my .earlier comments on the genera of bivalved sacoglossans. I am basically following The Southern Synthesis in accepting existing genera until someone suggests a reasonable alternative.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
