Hopkinsia nakamotoensis from the Marshalls

From: Scott Johnson


Hi Bill,
I think I can extend the range of Hopkinsia nakamotoensis. These shots were taken at Kwajalein, Marshall Islands. They are frequently found on the bryozoan in the lower photo, in ledges on certain lagoon pinnacles at depths of 10-20 meters, and range in size up to about 10mm.

Thanks Scott,
I have separated one of the photos that you sent with this message, the one from Enewetak Atoll, into a separate message as I think it is Sakishimaia kondoi. If nothing else, it may lead to further discussion.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
