spread across at least 3 and maybe 5 of the 13 zoogeographical provinces in the classification by Titterton &amp;Whatley (1888b, text-fig. 1). This is a broad and somewhat spotty distribution, as the species has not yet been recognized in numerous assemblages at intervening localities. Perhaps these conspicuous gaps result in part from insufficient sampling of high-energy, hard-bottom habitats. Most faunal collecting for Ostracoda is based on sediment samples collected by dredging or coring. The diversity of Ostracoda on hard substrates is less well surveyed.
