Habitat.

Benthic.

Depth.

0-15 m ( Schrödl and Hooker 2014).

Type material.

Distribution.

Amphi-South American. On the Pacific side of South America, it extends from Callao (Peru, 12°S) to Comau Fjord (Chile, 42°S) ( Schrödl et al. 2005). On the Atlantic side it ranges from San Matías gulf (Argentina, 41°26'S) ( Cetra and Roche 2023) to Sao Paulo (Brazil, 21°S) ( Marcus 1959).

Sampling/reporting sites.

In Peru, it was reported in Callao (12°S), San Juan de Marcona (15°21′S), Islas Ballestas (13°44′S) ( Schrödl and Hooker 2014) and Independencia Bay (14°14'S) ( Uribe et al. 2013). In Chile, it was collected in Tocopilla (22°05'S), La Herradura (Coquimbo, 29°59′S), Tongoy (Coquimbo, 30°15′S) ( Fischer and Cervera 2005b), Coliumo Bay (36°32'S) ( Schrödl 2003), Canal de Calbuco (41°45'S) ( Marcus 1959), and in Comau Fjord (42°22′S) ( Schrödl et al. 2005).

Molecular studies are needed to clarify the genetic identities of the populations on both sides of South America ( Schrödl 2003; Uribe et al. 2013).
