Minimum depth from Ref. 116013. Known from sounds, deeper coastal substrates (25-100m) of the offshore fore-reef slope and surface or near surface water layers, including porpitids and the halopelagic Sargassum sp. fauna (Ref. 86643). Also found in Carrie Bow Cay, Belize, in patch reefs and sand trough on substrates composed of dead corals and gorgonians at depths of 5 to 18 m. As with other hydroids, this species exhibits a pelagic medusoid stage (Ref. 87156).
