Tyrinna evelinae (Er. Marcus, 1958)

Habitat.

Benthic.

Depth.

0-5 m ( Welch 2010).

Type material.

Not available.

Distribution.

Amphi-American and West Africa.

Sampling/reporting sites.

In Peru, it was reported in El Rubio (Tumbes, 03°52'S) ( Schrödl and Millen 2001). It was also reported in Mexico (Gulf of California, 28°N), Jamaica ( Schrödl and Millen 2001). In the Atlantic, it has been sampled in the Gulf of Mexico ( de la Cruz-Francisco et al. 2017), Panama ( Goodheart et al. 2016), Brazil ( Marcus 1958), Ghana, and Cape Verde ( Camacho-García et al. 2005).

Remarks.

It was initially listed by Paredes et al. (1999). According to Uribe et al. (2013) molecular studies are necessary to confirm the consistency of reports of T. evelinae in both the Atlantic and Pacific populations that are morphologically difficult to distinguish ( Valdés et al. 2006).
