NORWAY: Tromsø (SMNH 45661–45665, MCZR Oligochaeta 0120; see Rota & Erséus 2003); Bergen (SMNH 107746–107749; see De Wit & Erséus 2010).

SWEDEN: Koster Islands (SMNH 107730, 107736, 107738–107745, 108220; see De Wit & Erséus 2010).

Type locality

GERMANY: Kiel Bay.

Habitat

Intertidal, subtidal, 20–100 m in coarse shell sand, shell gravel, sometimes in brackish water (Baltic Sea), tolerating a wide range of salinity (11–35 ppt).

Distribution

Baltic Sea, Iceland (see Rota & Erséus 2003), North Sea (Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium), France, Norway and Sweden.

Remarks

According to van Haaren (2016), it is not possible to distinguish Grania postclitellochaeta from G. occulta De Wit & Erséus, 2010 and G. ovitheca Erséus, 1977 on morphological grounds only.
