Pleoticus robustus – Pérez Farfante 1977: 299, Guyana, French Guiana [with this comment: “seems to be scarce off the Guianas. Inasmuch as this species has not been reported from Brazilian waters, French Guiana is cited here as the southernmost limit of the species on the basis of samples taken during the R/V Oregon cruises off northeastern South America”]. — Takeda 1983: 45, Suriname, French Guiana [348–810 m]. — Guéguen 2000: 692, tab. 1, French Guiana [419–479 m]. — Tavares 2002b: 287, French Guiana.
