Panopeus angustifrons Benedict & Rathbun, 1891: 373 View in CoL , pl. 22 fig. 3, pl. 24 fig. 18.

Material examined. 1 male (CW 13.67 × 9.95 CL mm), station SDN30 , 06.v.2021 ( CCDB 7460 View Materials ) .

Geographic distribution. Western Atlantic— USA (Massachusetts to Florida), Gulf of Mexico, Bahamas, Antilles, and Brazil (Rio Grande do Norte, Pernambuco, Alagoas, Bahia, Espírito Santo, São Paulo, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul) ( Abele & Kim 1986; Coelho & Ramos-Porto 1995; Almeida et al. 2007b; Coelho et al. 2008; Felder et al. 2009; Thoma et al. 2009; Vieira & Calazans 2010; Mantelatto et al. 2020).

Remarks. This is the first record of Hexapanopeus angustifrons from the Espírito Santo state. The values of the BLAST query cover (>97%) and percent identity (>96%) were suitable for its identification, since our sequences aligned with other of the same species ( Schubart et al. 2000a; Thoma et al. 2009). Sequence accession number (GenBank): CCDB 7460—16S (OR501066) (present study).
