Type locality.

Los Angeles, East Pacific, United States of America.

Distribution.

Only known from shallow water at the type locality.

Remarks.

This is another species described from the United States’ Pacific Coast by Torrey and Kleeburger (1909) with a relatively good amount of detail; like P. insignis , there have been no more subsequent detailed or comparative studies. Arai (1971) has been the only author that has mentioned the morphological characters of this species after the original description, but even this characterization was based on the characters listed in the original description. The taxonomic status of this species is doubtful.

Type material.

Not found in this study, but the original description provided a graphic representation.
