Distribution. Western Atlantic— USA (Florida), Belize, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil (Atol das Rocas, Fernando de Noronha, Trindade, Ceará, Paraíba, Pernambuco, Alagoas, Sergipe, Bahia, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo) ( Werding 1982; Veloso & Melo 1993; Werding et al. 2003; Rodríguez et al. 2005; Coelho et al. 2007; Ferreira & Melo 2016).

Remarks. The species is found on the intertidal region, under rocks, on calcareous algae and coral reefs ( Haig 1956; Werding 1982; Veloso & Melo 1993). It is morphologically similar to Pachycheles biocellatus (Lockington, 1858) , from the eastern Pacific, and Pachycheles meloi Ferreira & Tavares, 2017 , endemic to the oceanic archipelago of Trindade and Martin Vaz, Brazil ( Haig 1956; Ferreira & Tavares 2017). Sequence accession number (GenBank): CCDB 2103—16S ( JF900726 View Materials ) ( Miranda & Mantelatto 2016).
