Costasiella from Tufi - Papua New Guinea

March 8, 2003
From: Dave Harasti

Hi Bill,
I have attached another species that I am unsure of it's identification. This species was found under Tufi Wharf in Papua New Guinea in January 2003. The animal was very small, less than 1cm and in about 3 metres of 30 degree water.

Cheers,

Dear Dave,
This is a little unnamed sacoglossan belonging to the genus Costasiella. It is called Costasiella sp. 2 on the Forum.
Best wishes,
