Distribution
. Circumtropical, usually between
30°N
and
30°S
. In the eastern Pacific from
Mexico
to
Colombia
and
Ecuador
(García Madrigal 2007,
Guillén Pozo, 2007
,
Valencia & Giraldo 2012
, this study).
Remarks
. The five known species of
Streetsia
are distinguished mainly by the length of the double urosomite, the shape and structure of the gnathopod 2 and pereopod VI, and the cuticular pores on the epimeral plates.
Another species of oxycephalid rarely collected. Also rare in the Gulf of
California
, where
Siegel-Causey (1982)
found it only in the southern Gulf, where our material was also collected (
Fig. 5
). It has been found in the Mexican portion of the
California
Current by
Lavaniegos & Hereu (2009)
.
