Distribution. Western Atlantic— Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil (Pará, Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Alagoas, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Santa Catarina) ( Coelho 1963; Coelho & Ramos-Porto 1994; Coelho-Santos & Coelho 1994; Coelho et al. 2007; Machado et al. 2012; Ferreira & Melo 2016).

Remarks. Pisidia brasiliensis occurs in shallow waters, on sandy and rocky substrates ( Veloso & Melo 1993; Fransozo et al. 2011). It is also found associated with the bryozoan S. errata , in the infralittoral zone, on reefs of P. caudata , but at lower densities ( Micheletti-Flores & Negreiros-Fransozo 1999) and with the mussel farming ropes of Perna perna ( Linnaeus, 1758) ( Macedo et al. 2012) . This species is frequently misidentified as Porcellana platycheles (Pennant, 1777) . The latter, despite having been recorded to São Paulo by Melo (1993), was later excluded from the list of species occurring in Brazil due to misidentifications ( Veloso & Melo 1993; Ferreira & Melo 2016). Sequences accession numbers (GenBank): CCDB 5618—16S ( MT812691 View Materials ), COI ( MT785556 View Materials ).
