Argopecten noronhensis
(E. A.
Smith
, 1885
) ★
■
Bathymetric distribution
:
20–140 m
—SW.
Geographical distribution
: North (AP, PA), Northeast
Brazil
(including FN), and SC—B.
Remarks
: This species was only described from Brazilian waters, including from the northernmost Brazilian State of
Amapá
, which suggests its occurrence in the Caribbean province. However, it was not noticed from the West Indian, Central America and Florida by
Abbott (1974)
,
Redfern (2001)
,
Mikkelsen & Bieler (2007)
,
Tunnel
et al
. (2010)
, and
Turgeon
et al
. (2009)
, and so it is here considered as endemic from
Brazil
.
