From: Jim Anderson

Dear Bill,

Here is a photo of Favorinus blianus I took on a recent dive.

Locality: Dunollie Point, Oban on the west coast of Scotland. On the south side of the point on shingle/hydroid sloping bottom with lots of small spawn on the hydroids, this animal, approx. 15 mm, was found at 16 metres. Water temperature 10°C. 10 May, 2007. Photo: J. Anderson.

Regards,
Jim A
