Eastern Indian Ocean: endemic to Western Australia. Reported from New Zealand in a number of references (Ref. 5755, 27073) but following Kuiter 1993 (Ref. 9002) these would be misidentifications of Bodianus unimaculatus. Report of occurrence from Hawaii, Ryukyu and Easter islands (Ref. 28618) need to be verified.
