Dear Bill,
To accompany my main discussion on E. abei and E. amakusana here are some photos of a pale brown form.

UPPER: Shimoda, Sagami Bay, Japan. 24 August 2002. Photo: J.Imamoto
LOWER: Echizen coast, Japan. 3 August 2002. Photo: J.Imamoto

I asked Jun Imamoto to confirm the colour details of this animal. He could see the vermilion-red specks. When the body color is redder, then the specks are even harder to see.
