| Notes |
Lévi's (1952) record from Senegal does not have the characteristic spination of M. incrustans tornotes (multiple small denticles), so it is very likely a different species. [details] Distribution: Prince Edward Island (from the northern tip of Miscou Island, N.B. to Cape Breton Island south of Cheticamp, including the Northumberland Strait and Georges Bay to the Canso Strait causeway), western slope of Newfoundland , including the southern part of the Strait of Belle Isle but excluding the upper 50 m in the area southwest of Newfoundland and southern Gaspe waters (Baie des Chaleurs, Gaspe Bay to American, Orphan and Bradelle banks; eastern boundary: Eastern Bradelle Valley) [details] habitat: intertidal [details] Habitat: infralittoral and circalittoral of the Gulf and estuary [details] | ||||||||||
