Trigonobalanus verticillata Forman

Distribution

provided by EOL authors
This taxon is known from Indonesia, Malaysia (Malay Peninsula, Sabah), and Hainan Island in south China. It is likely that this species occurs elsewhere, based upon the paucity of research on T. verticillata, and the recentness of the 2008 discovery on Hainan Island.
