Depth range Intertidal to about 1 m. [details]
Distribution Australia: Western Australia; South Australia; Victoria; New South Wales; Queensland. [details]
Etymology Not stated. The subspecific epithet australis is a Latin adjective meaning 'southern', and refers presumably to the southern geographic occurrence of the subspecies, in South Australia. [details]
Habitat Sand and fine sand, at intertidal and shallow depths. [details]
Holotype Holotype deposited at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, Los Angeles, USA. [details]
Type locality Australia, South Australia, in the vicinity of Adelaide (geocoordinates not given, estimated with gazetteer to be approximately lat. -34.5º, long. 137.8º). The subspecies was described based on three specimens, collected at Port Noarlunga (1), Encounter Bay (1), both south of Adelaide, and Troubridge (1), at the Yorke Peninsula, all from South Australia. The original publication does not designate a holotype, and so the three specimens from three localities are to be considered as syntypes. [details]
