Comments: In the NEP, the harbor and open-coast populations of Ericthonius brasiliensis likely represent different<br />

species, with the harbor species likely introduced (Chapman, 2007). It is considered an invader in Hawaii, Central<br />

Polynesia, and South Africa. In other regions, we list it as unclassified.<br />
