Remarks. Tryphosella seasana is uncommon (usually 20 to 50 but up to 450 specimens in a trap) off the southern Queensland coast in 50 to 100 m depth and the northern New South Wales coast (1 to 2 specimens per trap) between 100 and 200 m depth. These records extend the distribution of T. seasana down the east coast of Australia to Coffs Harbour.

Distribution. Southern Queensland, northern New South Wales, eastern Australia; 50–200 m depth.
