Introduction
According to the Australian Museum reference collection another species identified as Azorinus coarctatus is present in QLD and NT. Huber (2010: 705) states that A. coarctatus is nom. dub. and the name A. abbreviatus needs to be used for the Indo-Pacific. The Australian Museum material needs to be re-identified to be confirmed.
