Remarks
. This South Asian species is introduced to many islands and coastal areas of the New World. As for
Martinique
, this large and well-recognizable species is not found recently on the island, thus it is reasonable to think that it does not occur in
Martinique
at present. Thus, we suppose that historical New World record of
S. dehaani
made by
Kraepelin 1904
(p. 324) for
Martinique
,
Ile-de-France
(
France
), Florida and Salabury (probably Salaberry,
Québec
,
Canada
) were obviously based on introduced (but not acclimatized) specimens.
