Abstract

The heteronemertean Baseodiscus hemprichii is widely distributed in tropical to temperate Indo-Pacific waters, with the northern limit of its range formerly at Shirahama, Japan. A specimen collected intertidally at Tateyama, Japan, extends the northern boundary of the species' distribution by about 1°18′ in latitude. This northward range extension may be in response to warming ocean temperatures.
