Comments:
Only on Atlantic side, not on the Mediterranean side. The species was cited in the last Mediterranean checklists of Quignard & Tomasini (2000) and Psomadakis et al. (2012). The tracing back through literature led to the first and only original mentioning in Bonaparte (1846). Without any published evidence or stored specimens, Bonaparte (1846) provided just the species name and the geographic distribution ("Oc. Mader. Med. Sic."), which was later interpreted as Sicilian record of this species (Relini & Lanteri 2010) (Ref. 125963).
