Dear Bill,
Melinda found the Noumea crocea on 15 May 2000. Coincidentally, it was about two feet away from the other tiny yellow nudi that I sent you (the one with the red mantle margin) [Noumea flava].

Regards,
Stuart

Thanks Stuart,
Basic date, depth, and locality data give a photographic record like this considerable credibility for anyone studying the geographic distribution of a species. The date may not seem important but if a species turns out to be an introduction from another region such records become extremely valuable in documenting the invasion.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
