Distribution

provided by World Register of Marine Species
South Atlantic (Quadra et al. 2014), Australia, Indonesia, Loyalty Islands Basin, Wallis and Futuna Islands, Tonga, Tasman Sea, South Tasmania, New Zealand, Gulf of Mexico, Guadeloupe, 550–1960 m, exceptionally as shallow as 128 m (Stoddart & Lowry 2004). Barnard (1961) records E. thurstoni under the name E. gryllus at much deeper (abyssal) stations (Stoddart & Lowry 2004), but it is possible that they were mesopelagic or upper bathypelagic specimens caught when the trawl was hauled up.
