Comments: Simone (2006) in naming C. intratesta noted that it had previous been known as C. plana in the Brazilian literature. He stated the range of his new species as Bahia to Rio Grande do Sul, but did not account for records farther north in Brazil (off Amapá by Rios 1970) or in Uruguay and Argentina (by Hoagland 1983a). These are included here, pending clarification.
