Central Atlantic: Ascension I. (Ref. 98447).
Reports from other areas are doubtful: St. Helena (in Ref. 5292; see Ref. 119515); São Tomé Island: intermediate form with Thalassoma pavo (Ref. 34088). Ghana and other localities on the west African coasts (Ref. 86997). If reports would be confirmed, they are more likely the result of human transportation (Ref. 98447).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 23 - 27.7, mean 26.4 °C (based on 9 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00490 (0.00204 - 0.01176), b=3.11 (2.90 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref. 120179):  Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
