Gibsmithia hawaiiensis Doty

Figure 4 View FIGURE 4

TYPE LOCALITY: Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaiian Islands

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION: The Hawaiian Islands. Based on the present study, G. hawaiiensis presents a much narrower distribution range than previously thought, being restricted to the type location. Records of the species from outside the Hawaiian Islands await further study.

NOTE: The species has been described and illustrated in detail by Doty (1963). Descriptions from Abbott (1999) and Kraft (1986) are based on various samples besides the Hawaiian specimens and thus should be reconsidered. Illustrated here is a range of habits from the Main Hawaiian Islands (Hawaii, Figs. 5A–B View FIGURES 5 , and Oahu, Figs. 5C–D View FIGURES 5 ) and the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands ( Figs. 5E–F View FIGURES 5 ).

REPRESENTATIVE SEQUENCES: KM406832 (COI-5P), KM392323 (rbc L) and KM392291 (UPA).
