Mexichromis sp. from Okinawa

December 23, 1999
From: Robert F. Bolland

Hi Bill:

Here is an Okinawan Mexichromis of unknown status. I've found several of these which look to be similar to each other. Any idea as to the species?

Collection Data: RFB # 2486-E
Beneath Tengan Pier, amid rubble and silty-sand, 12m. TL: 29mm. 8 March, 1991

Wishing you and the staff of the Australian Museum a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Sincerely,
Bob

Dear Bob,
Thanks for the photo, I'm afraid I can't help with an id.

Thanks for the season's greetings which I will pass on. Thanks also for your participation during the year and I look forward to future contributions.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.

[Note added August 2000: I previously had this listed as Mexichromis sp. 1. ...Bill Rudman]
