  • notes   32mm length. Scanned from 35mm slide. When we open to sea water storage tanks at LML in order to inspect & clean them, we found two of these guys. The water entering the storage tanks passes through sand filters, so these guys had to enter as larvae. The walls of the tanks were covered the several colonies of slime sponge (probably Oscarella carmela).
