Hawaii (Fahey &Gosliner 2004; Gosliner et al. 2008), Midway Atoll (Gosliner et al. 2008), Palau (Fahey &Gosliner 2004; Gosliner et al. 2008), New Caledonia (Pruvot- Fol 1930), Australia, Philippines, Madagascar, Tanzania (Fahey & Gosliner 2004) and Mozambique.

Remarks. This species was originally described as Aegires citrinus Pruvot-Fol, 1930 and was renamed by Fahey and Gosliner (2004) as A. pruvotfolae to separate from Aegires citrinus (Bergh 1875), which was reassigned from Notodoris to Aegires to maintain the monophyly of the genus Aegires . Bouchet (2015a) considers A. pruvotfolae as an “unnecessary nom. nov” in the database WoRMS; however, as this species is different from A. citrinus we consider A. pruvotfolae to be the correct name for the Mozambican specimens.
