Distribution. Western Atlantic— Brazil (Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul), and Argentina ( Holthuis 1963, 1991; Williams 1986; Coelho & Ramos-Porto 1998; Melo 1999; Keunecke et al. 2007; Dall’Occo 2010).

Remarks. Previous records from the coast of São Paulo include Ubatuba, São Sebastião, Bertioga, Santos, Guarujá, Cananéia and 23°30′S 43°00′W to 24°19′S 45°09′W (Santos) ( Holthuis 1963; Keunecke et al. 2007; Severino-Rodrigues et al. 2007; Dall’Occo 2010; Duarte et al. 2010). This species is not specially fished for economic interest ( Holthuis 1991). However, it is very abundant in São Paulo coast, and it is captured as bycatch of the pink shrimp ( Farfantepenaeus brasiliensis and F. paulensis ) ( Keunecke et al. 2007; Duarte et al. 2010). Sequences accession number (GenBank): CCDB 4190—16S ( MF490148 ), COI ( MF490045 ) ( Mantelatto et al. 2018).
