Comments: Paracaprella pusilla is introduced in Hawaii (Carlton and Eldredge, 2009) and cryptogenic in South Africa<br />

(Mead et al., 2011). Based on its original description from Brazil and extensive Caribbean distribution, we tentatively<br />

classify it as native in the West Tropical Atlantic region and introduced in the Pacific and Indian Oceans.<br />
