Height is based on colonies (Ref. 3248). Maximum depth from Ref. 116013. Distributed world-wide in warm seas (Ref. 3248). Known from tidal inlets, exposed areas of bays, including any ledges at their entrance, sounds, caves, shallow reefs, shallow coastal benthic habitats (< 25 m) (Ref. 86643), and on mangrove roots (Ref. 121478). Also found in Carrie Bow Cay, Belize, in patch reefs, high and low spur and groove zones, sand trough, outer ridge and fore-reef slopes on substrates composed of dead corals and gorgonians at depths of 2 to 18 m. As with other hydroids, this species exhibits a pelagic medusoid stage (Ref. 87156).
