For the authors, this species may have come from the Indian Ocean from a whirlwind and arriving in Brazil (according to Villar & al. (2015) plankton can be transported by Agulhas rings escaping the Indian Ocean, entering Cape Basin, and drifting northwesterly across the South Atlantic, and finally reaching the South American continent over the course of several years). The absence of more individuals in samples collected during ongoing monitoring in the following months lead to conclude that O. attenuata did not successfully reach the status of an introduced species. This species is the first record in Brazil, from a coastal station in March and May 2011.
