Status Blake (2015: 80) states that Oligobregma blakei Schüller & Hilbig, 2007 is a juvenile, probably belonging to a different genus. The species was described from a very small specimen 3 mm long, which is less than the size where the branchiae develop in other scalibregmatids, like Scalibregma australis Blake, 2015, a species occurring in the same area. This way O. blakei could be erroneously placed in Oligobregma. Later Blake 2025 synonymized O. blakei. [details]
