Remarks

epipelagic - ?. Overall Depth Range in Sargasso Sea: 0-500 m (Deevey & Brooks, 1977, Station "S");
For Gonzalez & Bowman (1965, p.268) confusions are possible between certain identifications of this species and Farranula gracilis.
After Ehrhardt (1967, p.888, 894) the species is found in the southwest Tyrrhenian Sea in water salinity between 37.08 - 38.16 p.1000 (mainly between 37.47 - 38.02).
