type locality contained in Cape Verdean Exclusive Economic Zone [details]
Type locality Type locality stated by Petuch (1975) to be Baia do Inferno (15°00'N; 23°43'W, coordinates inferred from place name; 15°00'N; 24°33'W stated in publication correspond to a location on Fogo island). However Rolán (1990) considers that the taxon could originate from Sal and not Santiago island. [details]
