Records. USA: California (Moore 1909, Hartaman 1947, Berkeley and Berkeley 1952, Blake 2000), Costa Rica (Dean 2001, 2004). Remarks. Notomastus tenuis was described from California by Moore (1909). Fauchald (1972) reported it from Baja California, Baja California Sur, Nayarit and Jalisco while Hernández-Alcántara and Solís-Weiss (1998) reported it from the Gulf of California. Examination of specimens of both author's collections indicated that they were actually Notomastus hemipodus Hartman, 1945. The report by Calderón-Aguilera and Jorajuria-Corbo (1986) for San Quintín Bay seems to be incorrect, as the description and illustrations do not correspond to Notomastus tenuis. The records of Notomastus tenuis from western of México are therefore considered doubtful.
