Asteronotus cespitosus from the Solomons
April 12, 2002
From: Bruce Potter
Dear Bill,
A year or two ago I discovered a giant red form of Asteronotus cespitosus, then in January of this year I found a different, pink and yellow form. Now I have found what I think of as a "typical" form. This was found on a coral and rubble site on the outskirts of Honiara, Solomon Islands.
It was about 150mm long and found at about 9 meters depth. This was quite near where I found the pink and yellow one in January.
Regards
Bruce Potter.

This is certainly the 'real' Asteronotus cespitosus.
