Remarks.
Well-known species, with records from Florida, throughout Caribbean Sea and southern Gulf of Mexico (
Hurt
et al.
, 2013
); associated with the cork-screw sea-anemone
B. annulata
, typically in shallow water (
1–10 m
). Both earlier records from
Panama
, i.e. prior to the description of several closely related species (
Knowlton and Keller, 1983
;
1985
), need confirmation.
