Table 2 (continued on next two pages). Distribution and habitat of the polyclads in the Tropical Eastern Pacific (sensu Hastings 2000; Salazar-Vallejo & Londoño-Mesa 2004). The symbols indicate the countries of distribution (•), specifying whether the country includes any area with a type locality (+) or if the information is unknown or doubtful (?).
