| Range Description: | This species is known from very few specimens collected at only four localities, the Comoro Islands and Mauritius in the Indian Ocean and Okinawa, Japan in the Western Pacific Ocean (Gomon 2006) with additional records from Guam (Myers and Donaldson 1996). This species is probably more widely distributed within the range, however it is a deeper water species and not commonly seen. |
