This species has been taken at Bermuda only by the Challenger 

 Expedition, by which it was dredged in shallow water. It is rarely 

 obtained except by dredging.

This appears to be a very rare species at the Bermudas, at least in 

 shallow water. It probabl}^ inhabits the rough bottoms off the reefs. 

 .The only Bermuda specimen known is a carapace, found on the 

 beach (coll. J. M. Jones, Yale Mus., No. 3126). 



Its range extends from Florida to Bahia, Brazil. Off Florida, 12 

 fath. (Stimpson). Key West (Gibbes). Barbados and Martinique 

 (M.-Edw.). Bahia (Rathbun). Porto Rico, 9^ to 16 fath. (Rathbun).
