Halechiniscus perfectus Schulz, 1955 View in CoL
Material examined. Fifteen specimens (122–196 µm long), 5 females, 2 males, 2 second stage larvae (four clawed) and 6 specimens of undetermined gender collected in coral sand at Cook’s Bay, 0.5–1.0 m depth.
Remarks. The specimens perfectly match the description of the species in Ramazzotti & Maucci (1983). This species is widely distributed in both intertidal and subtidal sand, and it has been recorded in the Atlantic Ocean ( Brazil, Celtic Sea, Faroe Banks, North Sea, Scotland), Indian Ocean, Mediterranean (Adriatic Sea, Alboran Sea, Balearic Sea, Ionian Sea, Tyrrhenian Sea), and the Pacific Ocean (Coral Sea, French Polynesia, Hawaii) ( Schulz 1955; Renaud-Mornant 1967, 1971, 1976; Salvat & Renaud-Mornant 1969; de Zio Grimaldi et al. 1980a, b, 1983a; Morgan & O’Reilly 1988; Villora-Moreno & de Zio Grimaldi 1996; Hansen et al. 2001; Gallo et al. 2007; Moura et al. 2009; Jørgensen et al. 2010).
