Gulf of Mexico ( Odé 1989 ; Rosenberg et al. 2009 ), Mexico ( Bartsch 1907b ; Keen 1971 ; Abbott 1974 ; Odé 1989 ; Skoglund 1992 ), United States , California ( Kanakoff & Emerson 1959 ; Tunnell et al. 2010 ), United States , Florida ( Olsson & Harbison 1953 ; Odé 1989 ; Tunnell et al. 2010 ), United States , Texas ( Rosenberg et al. 2009 ; Tunnell et al. 2010 ). Geological age. Pleistocene ( Kanakoff & Emerson 1959 ), Pliocene ( Olsson & Harbison 1953 ; Odé 1989 ; Tunnell et al. 2010 ; Perrilliat & Flores-Guerrero 2011 ). Remarks. Rosenberg et al. (2009) listed this species as occurring in the Gulf of Mexico and the Eastern Pacific. This species in fact occurs only in the Eastern Pacific. All Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico records are misidentifications of another unidentified species (M. Fernandes pers. com. January 2020 ). The records from Odé (1989) and Tunnel et al. (2010) are misidentifications of Triphoris dupliniana Olsson, 1916 ( Fernandes & Pimenta 2020 ).
