Taxon Notes:	This species, which was described from the Caribbean, is currently not regarded as part of the Australian fauna (see Davie (2002) ABRS Zoological Catalogue 19.3A), and previous records from Australian waters may be based on mis-identifications and need to be verified. This code replaces previous (interim) CAAB code 00 701011 (FISHLIST 701011).
