Amphithrax aculeatus (Herbst, 1790) View in CoL

Cancer aculeatus Herbst, 1790: 248 .

Material examined. Brazil, São Paulo: 1 ♀, CCDB 451 View Materials , Ubatuba, Ilha das Palmas , coll. F. Mantelatto, 06.x.2002 .

Distribution. Western Atlantic—USA (South Carolina, Florida, Gulf of Mexico), Antilles, and Brazil (Fernando de Noronha, Atol das Rocas, São Paulo) ( Melo 1996; Alves et al. 2006; Felder et al. 2009).

Remarks. Previous records on the coast of São Paulo include Ilha Vitória ( Alves et al. 2006, 2012a as Mithrax verrucosus ). The name M. verrucosus was synonymyzed to Mithrax aculeatus ; this species currently belongs to the new genus Amphithrax ( Windsor & Felder 2014) . Sequences accession number (GenBank): CCDB 2934—16S ( MF490195 View Materials ), COI ( MF490101 View Materials ) ( Mantelatto et al. 2018a).
