| Comment | tab.1-2,4 |
| Locality | Saudi Arabia, Djetta (= Jeddah), SMF 349. |
| Distribution | Western Indian Ocean: restricted to the Red Sea (from near the Strait of Bab el Mandeb northward to the Gulf of Aqaba); 5-15 m. |
| Quote | The collection locality of MNHN 2001-2614 (Martinique, Caribbean Sea) is undoubtedly an error, since there are no other records of species of this species from the Atlantic Ocean. The collection locality of SMF 4168 (Tanzania) is also doubtful, since no other accurate records of this species outside the Red Sea were found during this study. |
