Remarks. The genus Triphoris is of feminine gender, therefore the name should be Triphoris ornata .

Hervier (1899) reported this species from New Caledonia but this is an Atlantic/Caribbean species. The record of this species from the Suez Canal by Cooke (1885) is likely a misidentification (see also Rolán & Fernández-Garcés 2008: 90). The record from Bermuda by Odé (1989) is an incorrect citation of another source and therefore should be disregarded.
