Type locality.
Off Charleston, South Carolina; Beaufort, North Carolina, United States of America (not specified).
Distribution.
Atlantic coast of United States and Canada, Gulf of Mexico, and Caribbean Sea, at 2-250 m depth.
Remarks.
This species is probably the most extensively studied among the Ceriantharia . There are appropriate descriptions of specimens ( McMurrich 1910; Carlgren 1912a) and there is much biological information, especially related to ecological aspects ( Shepard et al. 1986; Kristensen et al. 1991; Holohan et al. 1998). One important issue that still needs be studied is the possible occurrence of this species in the deep sea. Several photographic records, especially from ROV surveys below 400 m depth are available on the internet, but, to date, no such deep specimens have been collected for study.
