Type locality There is some confusion over the original locality of this species, as in his preliminary account (1886) Sollas records C. schmidtii from the Azores (38°30'N 31°14'W), wheras in his definitive account (1888) he quotes Challenger stat. 24: Culebra Island (18°38'30" N 65°5'30"W). The latter is taken as the type locality. [details]From other sources
