Dear Karly,
This is an unnamed green Tambja which we are calling Tambja sp. 2 at the moment, until more specimens are available for study.

Best wishes,

Dear Dave,
This is one of a number of green nembrothids from south eastern Australia which we still need more specimens and information on.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
