}}Akera is a marine genus of sea hare in the family Akeridae, known from the late Callovian (Jurassic) to the recent periods.[2][3]

Description

Akera is a primitive genus. These sea hares do not fit completely in their external shell; it just covers their visceral hump which is positioned at the posterior end of their bodies. Their streamlined bodies are adapted for burrowing.

Species

  • Akera bayeri (Marcus & Marcus, 1967) - It can be found along the coast of Colombia and Brazil.
  • Akera bullata (O. F. Müller, 1776) - type species
  • Akera julieae Valdes & Barwick, 2005
  • Akera silbo Ortea & Moro, 2009
  • Akera soluta (Gmelin, 1791) - Also called the Solute akera, this species can be found in the Indo-West Pacific. Little is known about this species. Its shell can grow as large as 45 mm in length.
  • Akera striatella Lamarck, 1804 - fossil from the Eocene and Oligocene.
  • Akera tasmanica Beddome, 1883:[4] synonym of Diaphana tasmanica (Beddome, 1883)
