Distribution

This species occurs in the Indo-Pacific region. It was described from Okinawa, Ryukyu Islands, Japan. A specimen from Eastern Australia identified as Dermatobranchus nigropunctatus is probably a misidentification of this species.[3][1]

gollark: You have to use an explicit `fallthrough` keyword for fallthrough.
gollark: In this case.
gollark: As much as I mostly dislike golang, I think they got it right.
gollark: What if you want to use fallthrough in a *bit* of a mostly non-fallthrough switch/case?
gollark: (also, how would you specify fallthrough if you wanted that?)
