Poorly known, but it appears to be restricted to cooler waters of the Southern Hemisphere between 32° S and the Antarctic convergence; it has been recorded stranding in New Zealand, Australia, Tristan da Cunha, and Tierra del Fuego. Its distribution may be circumpolar, but it is also possible that there is a gap in its distribution between the Chatham Is and South America. in Ziphiidae

Its distribution may be circumpolar, but it is also possible that there is a gap in its distribution between the Chatham Is and South America. Published as part of Russell A. Mittermeier & Don E.
