Known from mangroves (Ref. 86642), tidal inlets, exposed areas of bays, including any ledges at their entrance, sounds, caves and upper slope (> 100m), tops of Challenger and Argus seamounts (Ref. 86643). It is found on substrates such as polychaete tubes and dead gorgonians and is observed to be epizoic on other hydroids, i.e. Plumularia setacea, Symplectoscyphus spp., Bougainvillia muscus, Lafoea dumosa, Hybocodon chilensis and Sertularella polyzonias (Ref. 87801).
