Previous records. Heck, 1977: 338 [around Galeta Island, as Trachycaris restrictus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1878) ]; Heck, 1979: 199 [Caribbean Panama]; Heck and Weinstein, 1989: 631 [Caribbean entrance to Panama Canal, as T. restrictus ].
Material examined. Colón. 1 spec., near Portobelo, shallow subtidal flat with coral rubble, 0.5–1.5 m, leg. A. Anker et al., 26.03.2015, MZUSP 33787 View Materials .
Remarks. Criales (1992) showed that T. restricta does not occur in the western Atlantic; therefore all records of T. restricta from Panama must be referred to T. rugosa . The species is known from South Carolina southward to Colombia, with scattered records throughout the Caribbean Sea and the southwestern Gulf of Mexico ( Felder et al., 2009), 0– 68 m.
