Western PacificThis eel inhabits shallow reef flats, sheltered coastal reefs, and lagoons. It lives on sand or rubble bottoms with rocky outcrops and spends most of the time burrowing in the ground. It is easily recognised by its overall pale coloration and compressed ribbon-like body but not often encountered by divers even during the night hours when it comes out of the substrate to feed.
