Comments: Chapman (2009) considers Cheiriphotis megacheles a likely introduction in the Eastern Pacific while<br />

Chapman (2007) and CANOD (2009) classifiy it as cryptogenic and consider it a possible species complex. We treat<br />

this as a conflict, and consider it unclassified in South Africa and cryptogenic in Brazil.<br />
