Widespread in the Indo-West Pacific; extending south to central Zululand (Leven Point); living low intertidal and near-shore reefs to 50 m . Notes. The synonymy of this species is probably far more extensive than indicated above. Robertson ( 2010 ) considered Phasianella solida to be the earliest name for a geographically variable complex of nominal taxa occurring over much of the Indo-West Pacific and provided a listing of potential synonyms. The names listed above focus on those described or recorded from the western Indian Ocean.
