A complaint which alleges a statutory basis for long-arm jurisdiction does not require further pleading or proof of jurisdiction unless controverted by a motion to dismiss along with evidence tending to show that the jurisdictional allegations are untrue. See Hyco Manufacturing Co. v. Rotex International Corp., 355 So.2d 471 (Fla. 3d DCA 1978); Fla.R.Civ.P. 1.070(i) and committee note to 1980 amendment.
Affirmed.
