Solea bleekeri Boulenger, 1898, which was described from a single specimen, is not a valid species; the holotype of this nominal species belongs to Pegusa nasuta (Pallas, 1814). Solea turbynei Gilchrist, 1904 is recognized and redescribed to include all specimens of Solea that have been traditionally described as belonging to S. bleekeri. Solea simonensis Bonde, 1922 based on a single anomalous specimen is confirmed as a junior synonym of S. turbynei.
