A small series of specimens of Chorilia turgida Rathbun, 1924 is reported from off the west coast of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico, in depth of 734 to 1,433 m. It was previously known from Monterey Bay to off San Diego, California, USA, and from one isolated record from the Cortés Bank, Mexico. The material was collected in cold water (3.16–5.48 ◦C) with mild to severe hypoxic conditions (0.25–0.90 ml/l O2).
