Type locality Type locality indicated with doubt as the West Indies. Current usage, following Abbott (1974) retains the name P. imbricata for Atlantic and Caribbean populations, and this would also be the valid name for worldwide populations if the Indo-Pacific P. radiata (Leach, 1814) and P. fucata (Gould, 1850) were considered as synonyms (e.g. Huber, 2010) [details]
