Distribution Stulpinaite et al. (2020, p. 745): "Astacolus sublegumen was reported to be present in Turkey by Meriç et al. (2004). The holotype of this species originates from the Antarctic Ocean and is currently referred to as Vaginulinopsis sublegumen (see Jones, 1994; and WoRMS Editorial Board, 2020). The specimen illustrated by Meriç et al. (2004) significantly differs from the holotype. The same illustration was used in Yokeş & Meriç (2009) and Meriç et al. (2014). To date, there is no valid record of Vaginulinopsis sublegumen in the Mediterranean Sea and the species is therefore absent and not alien." [details]
