Concerning message #6377:

Dear Bill and Nishina,
I found this Cyerce named Cyerce sp.3 on the forum. It looks very similar to Nishina's picture. It's the first observation at Indian Ocean. It confirms your suggestion of a wide distribution.

Locality: Etang-Salé, 1 metre, Reunion Island, Indian Ocean, 30 January 2008, Gula cyclone. Length: 12-14 mm. Photographer: Hugues Flodrops.

Best regards.
Hugues.

Dear Hugues,

Thanks for the record. I have included a 'close-up' to show the tubercles on the inflated cerata.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
