About Scatella warreni
Scatella warreni is a Hawaiian endemic recorded on Kauaʻi and several other islands.
Habitat and specimen evidence
Scatella warreni is a Hawaiian endemic recorded on Kauaʻi and several other islands. Historical Kauaʻi material includes Halemanu and Honopū. The revision brings those records together with the broader Hawaiian collection history. These vouchers support occurrence, but they are not a modern abundance survey and do not establish a unique larval substrate. Identification should use species-level morphology rather than the island or a wetland setting alone.
