There are several typical specimens of this species which seems 

 to be characteristic of the Indo-Pacific. Most of the Challenger 

 material comes from this region, and I have found it to be very 

 abundant in the Philippines. It extends as far eastward as the 

 Hawaiian Islands and as far westward as the Ked Sea and the 

 Mediterranean.
