Extra Distribution Information

Cosmopolitan, widespread except in Australia and apparently most diverse in northern temperate regions.

Note that conversion of the original AFD map of states, drainage basins and coastal and oceanic zones to IBRA and IMCRA regions may have produced errors. The new maps will be reviewed and corrected as updates occur. The maps may not indicate the entire distribution. See further details below.
