Substrate and distribution: Marine wood. Bohuslän, Skaftö par., Fiskebäckskil, Rödbergsviken, 58°15′08″N, 11°27′57″E, 22.VI 2017, on driftwood, ST 17-25, 17-26 ( UPS); Bökevik , 58°14′51″N, 11°27′10″E. New to Sweden .

Notes: Described from Japan and considered to be a subtropical species. It has, however, proven to be rather widespread and has also been reported from India ( Mathrubutham et al. 2009) and Thailand ( Jones et al. 2006). Nevertheless, the disjunction to northern Europe is considerable.
