Habitat and specimen evidence
Scatella hawaiiensis has a broad documented distribution within the Hawaiian archipelago. Kauaʻi records include Kawaikōī Stream and older collections from several localities. The revision combines historical and more recent specimens, so it documents a collection history rather than a single census of abundance. Its name does not mean that it is restricted to Hawaiʻi Island; Kauaʻi is part of the published range.
