From: Bob Bolland

Hi Bill,
I thought I'd submit a recent scan of an Okinawan Phyllodesmium. It would appear to be P. poindimiei.

Collection data:
RFB # 3861-A
9m / TL: 33mm
From beneath Tengan Pier, Tengan, Okinawa
20 April 2001

Cheers,
Bob

Thanks Bob,
I think you're right. It's good to get a better idea of its distribution as it helps to make the records from Western Australia seem more sensible.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
