Halgerda batangas? from Papua New Guinea
February 1, 2001
From: John Chuk
Dear Bill,
In my collection I found this picture of what I think may be Halgerda batangas.
The photo was taken in Kieta Harbour, Bougainville Island, P.N.G. on 3/11/89. Several specimens were found in close proximity, hidden in ledges, on the reef flat at a depth of 2m.
I'd be grateful if you could confirm the identity.
Thanks again for the work you put into an excellent website!

I think this is H. batangas but I have a bit of a problem clearly seeing the nature of the orange colour pattern on the mantle. If it is a network of thin lines then it is almost certainly H. batangas. However if they are spots then you probably have H. carlsoni
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
