Noumea simplex clustering

Hi Bill,
Here are some shots of Noumea simplex taken at Enewetak, Marshall Islands. They show animals on their pink food sponge. The third shows several animals tightly clustered together on their sponge prey, similar to the clustering in T. Kenji's photo of N. subnivalis and the N. decussata I sent separately.

Thanks Scott,
These photos also show the way the mantle 'bulges' on each side in a number of these species of Noumea.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
