Dear Bill,
This photo of Kaloplocamus acutus was taken at Hwa Soon Beach about 5m depth during night diving. The subject is very tiny and hard to get a good look at with the naked eye. Compare with sandy particle. It was taken by digital camera equipped with magnified lens.

Locality:  Jeju Island. Hwa Soon Beach, South Korea. Depth: 5 m.
Length: a few mm. 28 November 2004. Sandy bottom with Rock Wall. Photographer: Youn Byung Ro

Best regards,
From Dong Bum Koh

Dear Koh,
Thanks for these photos. It does look to be a very small animal. It is nice to get photos from the northern end of this species' range.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
