Notes  Distribution: Cosmopolitan (Griffiths, 1974). [details]

Identification: A lot of Dutch material was in the past wrongly determined as Jassa falcata. Of this species only one is recorded in the Delta area. According to Conlan (1990) J. herdmanni and J. marmorata are more common on the hard substrate of the Delta area. [details]
