Type locality Grube simply names Ovalau in his text but does not further specify the location. Ovalau Island is off Fiji, at approx -17.7352, 178.7652.

Most of Böggemann's material-examined list were G. russa specimens from New Zealand (held at NIWA, Wellington). Only the holotype is known for Fiji.
