Comments: Caprella equilibra likely consists of multiple species and its native range is unknown. However, Watling<br />

and Carlton (2007) suggest that at least part of its wide distribution "is doubtless due to transport on ship fouling." We<br />

use regional classifications when available and extrapolate those to province and or regional scales.<br />
