| Distribution | Atlantic: from Scandinavia to Northwestern Africa (Morocco and the Canary Islands), including the Mediterranean and Black Seas. |
| Quote | Current distribution appears to be reduced from this historic range, as a result of severe population depletion resulting in range contraction and localized extinctions; for example, it is now considered to be locally extinct in the North Sea (ICES 2005). and is no longer encountered in some areas of the northern Mediterranean.. |
