Mostly eastern Pacific Ocean; one record from Japan (Araga in Masuda et al. 1984); off Diablo Canyon, central California (Andrew Harmer, pers. comm. to M.L.) to Ecuador (Béarez 1996), apparently just into Gulf of California (23°06’N, 109°12’W) (John Snow, pers. comm. to M.L.), but including Islas Galápagos (Grove and Lavenberg 1997). Inshore and pelagic around floating material (Allen and Robertson 1994); depth: 0–30 m (98 ft) (Robertson and Allen 2008). Smaller individuals associate with drifting material (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California).
