Concerning message #17409:

Hi Bill,
After seeing Colin`s message, I remembered that I had a photo of what I think is also C.strigata on a similar sponge which shows signs of damage.
I also came across another one of these animals a couple of days ago which is also on a sponge.

Locality: Upper right photo: Flat rock, North Stradbroke Island, Queensland, 13th August 2006, Depth 15 m. Lower photos:Flat Rock North Stradbroke Island, 16 metres, Queensland Australia, Pacific ocean, 21 May 2006, rocky reef with sponges, hard & soft corals . Length: 30 mm. Photographer: Bruce Wilkie.

Many Thanks,
Bruce Wilkie.

Dear Bruce,
This is certainly C. strigata. It certainly looks like sponge damage. I'll have to check it out.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
