Atagema intecta? from Townsville, Qld
December 17, 2008
From: Melanie Wood
Hello again,
I believe this is Atagema intecta? I found it extremely well hidden with a black sponge of which I also photographed. I placed it in a small puddle of water but it didn't want to come out to play. I also have a picture of the underside. Could you please confirm (or deny) the ID?
Locality: Rowes Bay, Townsville, Low Tide 0.47 metres, Queensland, Australia, 9 September 2007, Intertidal muddy. Length: 7 cm. Photographer: Melanie Wood.
Cheers
Mel

Dear Mel,
This is most probably Atagema intecta but I can't see enough detail to be sure. Certainly the colour is about right.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
