From editor or global species database
Type locality Near Ferry Point, Bermuda, 32.3634 N, 64.7138 W, intertidal, associated with Ircinia sp. sponges. The coordinates presented in Maciolek & Blake are 21.7460' N, 64 42.8270' W, with evidently the North degrees value accidentally omitted. Bermuda is at 32 degrees north. Assuming the 32 degrees value has been omitted, the location decimalised becomes 32.3634 N, 64.7138 W, which fits well with the Ferry Point mention when plotted. [details]
