This eel lives between the water surface and 60 meters deep, preferring to live in areas with mud and sand, so lucky divers can sometimes meet it, The regions it can be found are across the eastern and southeastern Pacific Ocean, from the Mexican to the Chilean coast.
Its average length is of around 60 centimeters. The body has a light, tan-like colour with dark brown spots all over it.
