Noumea purpurea from Japan

December 4, 1999
From: Yasuhiro Shirai

Dear Bill,
Today I attached a photo of Noumea purpurea in the mail.
I saw this animal at Kusimoto in Japan. It was on a rock in the bay.

Data: Kusimoto (Japan), length: 15mm, water temperature: 25.0C. July 1999, depth: 16.5m.

Best wishes,
Yasuhiro S.

Dear Yasuhiro,
Thanks for the photo of Noumea purpurea which I need to prepare some pages on similarly coloured chromodorids.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
