Jadera haematoloma : Pennington 1922 , 5: 170 ( Buenos Aires : Quilmes); Bressa et al. 2001: 152 ( Buenos Aires : Natural Reserve Martin García Island ; Entre Ríos : Gualeguaychú); Pall and Coscarón 2012 , 46: 1447 ( Buenos Aires : José C. Paz ). Central and South American distribution Colombia , México , USA , Venezuela and West Indies ( Göllner-Scheiding 1979 , 1983 ). Comments Pall and Coscarón (2012) overlooked records from USA and the West Indies. Tsai et al. (2013) concluded that all sub-Amazonian records of this species are apparently erroneous, and may correspond – at least in part – to J. pyrrholoma Stål 1870 ; they also show that the specimen photographed in Pall and Coscarón (2012) is a misidentification, probably corresponding to J. pectoralis Stål 1862 or J. parapectoralis Göllner-Scheiding 1979 . We were unable to examine any specimens confirming its occurrence in Argentina .
