Taxon Notes:	This species has often been treated as a geographical variant or subspecies of C. victoriae, but they have a disjunct distribution, the latter is known from Exmouth to the WA/NT border, whereas C. nodulosus is restricted to Geraldton to Calbary and the Houtman Abrolhos. Here we follow WoRMS and list both species as distinct.
