Comments: Osburn (1953) reported Amathia convoluta from the Eastern Tropical Pacific; however it was not reported<br />

from the NEP until 2005, suggesting a recent anthropogenic introduction or a range extension. The native region is not<br />

known but may be the NWA. Osburn also reported it from Europe and Australia.<br />
