Holotype "Holotype. Specimen in 70% alcohol, No. 813, Sea of Okhotsk, Sakhalin I., Aniwa Bay, Busse Inlet, tidal zone, sand, 11 August 1947, coll. O.A. Scarlato" (Chaban & Chernyshev 2008: 53). [details]
Status "The internal morphology of this species was described on the basis of the dissected holotype, therefore the intraepithelial position of the lateral nerve cords in C. littorea is doubtful. The position of the lateral blood vessels is typical for the genus Tubulanus. We regard this species as a nomen dubium" (Chaban & Chernyshev 2008: 53). [details]
