Upogebia marina Coelho, 1973

Material examined (N=1). 1ni, 31/X/2004, St. 0 8 ( MZUESC #699).

Distribution. Western Atlantic – Venezuela and Brazil (from Pará to São Paulo) (Melo 1999).

Ecological notes. On calcareous algae, coral and sand bottoms; also in estuaries. Collected between 11 and 90 m ( Coelho 1997a; Melo 1999).

Previous records in Bahia. None.

Remarks. Since its description, U. marina has been reported from almost all Brazilian states from Pará to Sergipe ( Coelho 1997a). South of Sergipe, there is only one record at present, for São Paulo ( Nucci & Melo 1999), which indicates a vast gap with no records between these two states.
