World Distribution
Indian Ocean: Comoro Islands (Anjouan); Central Pacific: French Polynesia (Marquesas).
(Ahyong, 2002, Zoosystema, Marquesas) - Known only from the Comoro Islands and now the Marquesas (35-800 m). The remarkably discontinuous distribution likely reflects inadequate sampling effort in intermediate localities.

Vertical range : Shallow to deep-waters (e.g. 10-190 m) - Min-Max observed: 9-800 m
