Dear Bill,
Here is Trippa intecta from Espiritu Santo Is., Vanuatu, 1997. It was 30mm long and photographed at night in 1m.

Yours sincerely,

Vanuatu.
Thanks Vinka,
The photo shows the characteristic spiculate tubercles (caryophyllidia) on the mantle, very clearly. Note how the darker basal spicules radiate out into the surrounding mantle tissue.
Bill Rudman.
