Pseudocerotid H

Kaneohe Bay, O'ahu. About 73 mm.

Cory Pittman writes: "A large and striking worm from Kaneohe Bay. It was found on a patch reef at 2-10 m on 5/22/2017....It seems closest to Pseudoceros #5 and #50 on the CD but isn't a perfect match for either."

The specimen was collected by the 2017 MarineGeo survey of Kaneohe Bay, Oahu under the auspices of the Smithsonian Institution, The Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology, the University of Hawaii and affiliated organizations/sponsors.
