It is known only from the type locality – Palm Springs, near Channel Point, Northern Territory, Australia – where the holotype was collected from the stomach of a barramundi.^[1] It is listed as data deficient on the IUCN Red List.^[2]

Its specific name derived from the Latin, nux (a nut) and frango (to break), which refers to the unusual form of the claws, which resemble nutcrackers.^[3]
