Dendronotus subramosus - Take 2

September 15, 2005
From: Clinton Bauder

Hi Bill,
After some back and forth with Dave Behrens (who thinks the animal in my previous message (#14245) might be D. frondosus instead) I have another D. subramosus candidate for you. This one is from the Farallon Islands near San Francisco at the very top of a pinnacle called Noonday Rock. This one actually does have the prey hydroid. (sorry to mislead you in the other message)

Locality: Noonday Rock, Farallon Islands, California, USA. Depth: 10 meters. Length: 20 mm. 9 May 2004. Rocky Pinnacle. Photographer: Clinton Bauder

Also unlike the other image this one is from my video camera and thus of somewhat limited quality.

Dear Clinton,
Thanks for this photo, and thanks for following the earlier one up with Dave Behrens, whose message [#14770] I'm posting today as well. As he says ... sometimes the animal wins.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
