Thalassobathia pelagica is bathypelagic,[8] living at depths of 500–1,000 m (1,600–3,300 ft) in the Atlantic Ocean.[9] Two specimens have been collected between Iceland and Ireland, and one from the Gulf of Guinea. It has also been reported from Greenland and Iceland. A specimen from the Bering Sea has uncertain identification as this species.[10]
