Remarks.

Zenetos et al. (2010) and Çinar (2013) assigned Lepidonotus tenuisetosus as an exotic species for the Mediterranean Sea, with an origin in the Indo-Pacific/Red Sea. Its establishment success is uncertain, because it was recorded only once. We consider this species as an exotic species for the Brazilian coast.
