Comments: The type material in FLMNH was collected by Arthur T. Guest, who lived near Turtle Bay, Saint Georges Parish, and often collected from beach drift there (H. G. Lee, pers. comm., 10 December 2008). The type locality is therefore assumed to be that Turtle Bay, not the one in Southampton Parish at the other end of Bermuda, and to be beach collected (Rosenberg, herein, 10 December 2008).
