Several additional specimens (not listed above) are deposited in MZUSP. Additional (extra-limital) material examined . Cayman Islands: 1 non-ovig. specimen, FLMNH UF 41697, Little Cayman Island, eastern end, Owen Island, Heard-Sta 4 C, coll. R. Heard, 25.v. 1995. Description . See Manning & Chace (1990) for original description and illustrations, and Anker (2007) for additional figures. Distribution . Western-central Atlantic: Ascension Island; Caribbean Sea: Mexico, Cayman Islands; Brazil: Atol das Rocas, Fernando de Noronha, Trindade and Martin Vaz Archipelago (Manning & Chace 1990; Anker 2007, 2010; De Grave et al. 2014; present study). Ecology . Rocky intertidal with abundance of coralline algae and coral reefs; deep in crevices of algal clumps, dead corals etc.; intertidal to about 20 m. Remarks . The abundant material from Trindade Island represents the southern-most record of Salmoneus setosus from the Brazilian territorial waters; the species was previously known only from Atol das Rocas and Fernando de Noronha (Anker 2007). Salmoneus setosus is easy to distinguish from the other southern Atlantic species of Salmoneus by the presence of numerous thick setae on the carapace and pleon (Manning & Chace 1990; Anker 2007; setae also visible in Fig. 11 E). Although S. setosus appears to be common around Trindade Island, it can be easily overlooked due to its small size (carapace length typically less than 3.5 mm); most specimens were collected by a careful extraction of all small fauna associated with interstices of coralline algae. The validity of Salmoneus rocas Anker, 2007, which is presently known only from the holotype from Atol das Rocas, needs to be tested by a comparison of DNA sequences as the only character distinguishing it from S. setosus is the absence of stiff setae on the carapace and pleon. : Published as part of Anker, Arthur, Tavares, Marcos & Mendonça, Joel B., 2016, Alpheid shrimps (Decapoda: Caridea) of the Trindade & Martin Vaz Archipelago, off Brazil, with new records, description of a new species of Synalpheus and remarks on zoogeographical patterns in the oceanic islands of the tropical southern Atlantic, pp. 1-58 in Zootaxa 4138 (1) on page 35, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4138.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/271958 : {"references": ["Manning, R.
