Introduction
Dysideidae are renowned for their diversity of secondary metabolites, and Lamellodysidea, particularly Lamellodysidea
herbacea, is the most studied taxon biochemically. Recent multidisciplinary studies show that L. herbacea is a a species complex with most (but not all) geographically disjunct populations showing distinctive molecular and biochemical traits (e.g. New Caledonia + Vanuatu, Guam, Palau, Fiji, Northern Great Barrier Reef) each potentially warranting recognition as a distinct species (Erpenbeck et al. 2012).
Distribution
Extra Distribution Information
W, N and E coast of Australia; allegedly widespread Indo-west Pacific, from the Red Sea to French Polynesia (but clearly consisting of morphologically conservative cryptic sibling species).
IMCRA
Northern Shelf Province (25), Northwest Shelf Transition (26), Northwest Shelf Province (27), Northeast Shelf Province (40), Northeast Shelf Transition (41)
Ecological Descriptors
Filter-feeder, marine, sessile.
Extra Ecological Information
Depth intertidal waters–6 m.

While they agree in gross morphology and histology when preserved, in the live state they are quite distinct in characteristics such as colour and surface features, and in some cases in chemistry. It is probable that many published descriptions under this name represent more than one taxon but confirmation from preserved material is not possible)
