Dear Bill,
found this one at 12m on a steel wreck at Lion Island, Papua New Guinea. The animal was about six millimeters long. Do you know what it's called?

Dear Stuart,
It's Noumea crocea, a yellow chromodorid for which we have few records, so yours is quite welcome.

If you can give me some idea of a date for any of your photos it would make the observation valuable for future research records.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
