Cyerce antillensis from St. Vincent

From: Linda Ianniello

Attached are two images of what I believe are Cyerce antillensis. It was found in St. Vincent (part of the Grenadines), West Indies. It was very small - found by our dive guide.

Locality: St. Vincent, 40 feet, West Indies, Caribbean, July 24, 2007, Dive site Orca II - reef. Length: approx. 1/2 inch. Photographer: Linda Ianniello.

Dear Linda,

This is a nice find, The inflated cerata and white glands along the edge of the cerata certainly fit Cyerce antillensis. Your photos show the bifurcating rhinophores very well.

Best wishes,
