REMARK

The material of Fajer-Ávila et al. (2006) from Sinaloa was recorded as Haliotrema mugilinus , because these authors were not aware that Euzet & Suriano (1977) transferred it to the genus Ligophorus . All these records are doubtful because in accordance with Sarabeev et al. (2005), the distribution of L. mugilinus is restricted to the western Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico.
