Miller et al. (2014) Record numbers (Sea/Ocean classification): Atlantic Ocean: 2, Baffin Bay: 4, Greenland Sea: 1, Labrador Sea: 2, Pacific Ocean: 1; total: 10. Record numbers (FAO classification): FAO21: 6, FAO27: 3, FAO77: 1; total: 10. Remarks: This species is known only from high latitude, cold water sites in the northern hemisphere, the exception being a recent report for California, which needs confirmation. Echiniscoides hoepneri is a parasite of barnacles ( Balanus balanoides ) ( Kristensen & Hallas 1980 ).
