McLaughlin et al. (2005) place this species with the genus Eurypanopeus rather than Panopeus, in accord with findings of recent genetic studies; records include ULLZ 2365, 4330 from Campeche, Mexico, ID by D. L. Felder, and USNM 242995 from southwestern Florida, ID by R. Lemaitre; formerly regarded as a Gulf of Mexico endemic, but it is now reported to range beyond the Gulf of Mexico onto the northeast coast of Cuba (Martínez-Iglesias et al. 1993).
