A majority of these species (107) are new to the 2nd edition, having reached the Basin in the last twenty years, from both the Indo-Pacific region and the tropical Atlantic. The reader will find as well a description of 88 additional taxa that are often (mistakenly) listed as exotic in the scientific literature.
