Remarks

This is the first record of this species since its original description from central West Florida by Child (1992b). The two specimens were sampled at the same station, off Le Vauclin (Atlantic coast). They are morphologically very similar to Child’s description. Unfortunately, CO1 PCR amplifications were negative for the two DNA extracts.
