Type material

Holotype: NL ZMA.PYC.P.1486 (not examined). Type locality: Gustavia , Saint Barthelemy (East Caribbean).

Material examined

MARTINIQUE • 1 ♂; Presqu’Île de la Caravelle; 14°44.1ʹ N, 60°50.8ʹ W; depth 16 m; 18 Sep. 2016; st. AB189; MNHN-IU-2016-856/ MK411169 View Materials GoogleMaps .

Remarks

Lucena et al. (2019) described a velvety region of the femur posteriorly to the cementary tube in this species, a character also observed in the single collected specimen from Martinique. The species was identified in Martinique by Müller (1990a) in Petite Anse Macabou, and it is therefore still not known from the Caribbean coast of Martinique.

Distribution

Caribbean and Brazil.

Depth range

0– 15 m. We extend this depth range to 16 m.
