Mantelatto et al., 1995. Distribution. Western Atlantic—USA (North Carolina, Florida), Mexico, Belize, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, West Indies, Brazil (Ceará to Santa Catarina) (Ramos-Porto & Coelho 1993, as H. curacaoense Schmitt, 1924; d’Udekem d’Acoz 1997; Terossi & Mantelatto 2012). Previous records. Ubatuba (Mantelatto et al. 1999; Morgado & Tanaka 2001, as H. curacaoensis Schmitt, 1924; Terossi et al. 2008; 2010a; 2010b; Terossi & Mantelatto 2010; 2012; Terossi et al. 2017); São Sebastião (Amaral et al. 2010, as H. curacaoensis). Remarks. Hippolyte exilirostratus Dana, 1852 and H. curacaoensis were considered synonyms of H. obliquimanus by d’Udekem d’Acoz (1997). Some genetic and larval variations were reported between specimens from Caribbean Sea and Brazil, but these did not support the separation of H. obliquimanus into two or more species (Terossi et al. 2010a; Terossi & Mantelatto 2012). Many studies were carried out with this species on São Paulo coast, including population and reproductive features (Mantelatto et al. 1999; Terossi & Mantelatto 2010; Terossi et al. 2008; 2010b), sperm morphology (Terossi et al. 2012), and phylogenetic positioning (Terossi et al. 2017). Sequences accession number (GenBank): CCDB 2147 - 16S (JF794696), COI (JF794728).
