Remarks: This parthenogenetic species is widely distributed throughout the world, and its closest relative (the bisexual T. pardidum ) is known only from Hong Kong. Therefore, it is likely that the species is not native to the New World but is introduced from the Old World (probably from the Oriental Region).

Distribution: Mexico, North America, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Trinidad, Brazil, Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Angola, Madagascar, Suriname.
