Pink aglajid from East Timor

July 24, 2008
From: Brian Francisco

Hi Bill

We spotted this pink aglajid last night at one of our favorite dive sites. It didn't look familiar and it doesn't seem to be in my reference materials. Can you help us identify it?

Locality: Sandy Botton, 16 meters, East Timor, Banda Sea, 30 November 2006, sandy slope. Length: 2-3 cm. Photographer: Brian Francisco.

Thanks very much

Dear Brian,

This is what I am calling aglajid sp. 9. We have records on the Forum from the Red Sea and Indonesia but as we know nothing of its anatomy I can only guess at it generic relationships.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
