Rem.: C.B. Wilson (1950) reports this species in the extreme north of the Pacific.
According to Sewel (1947) this form, found aboard a ship (sampled from ballast water), at that time in the Mediterranean Sea, could in fact come from the Red Sea.
After Tanaka (1960, p.78) the male of this species found from the Indian Ocean present an anterior and posterior regions of the body in a proportional lengths as 48 to 52. The proportional lengths of the abdominal segment and caudal rami are as 40 to 60.
For Boxshall & Halsey (2004, p.491) the subgenus (Dahl, 1912) is considered as full generic status pending phylogenetic revision of the whole family at the generic level.
