Maximum depth from Ref. 116013. Epibiotic (Ref. 116013). Known from shallow reefs, shallow coastal benthic habitats (<25m), upper slope (>100m), tops of Challenger and Argus seamounts (Refs. 86643). Also found in Carrie Bow Cay, Belize, in reef crest areas on substrates composed of dead corals and gorgonians at depths of 0.2m. As with other hydroids, this species exhibits a pelagic medusoid stage (Ref. 87156).
