Habitat
Echeneis nacurates are often present in shallow inshore brackish areas, as well as around coral reefs. They are found at depths ranging from 20-50 meters, which is where the coral reefs are located (Humann 1994).
There have also been sightings of E. nacurates near Long Island, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and traveling up the Hudson River attached to a host (Smith 1997).
