Juvenile Triopha catalinae? from Brit. Columbia

October 8, 2002
From: Marli Wakeling

Hi Bill,
I found this tiny critter at Port Hardy, and first thought it might be something new. Once I enlarged it, it appears that it may be a juvenile Triopha catalinae.

Location: Annie's Wall, Port Hardy, British Columbia, Canada.
Date: August 2002
Depth: 50 feet
Length: 1 cm.

Dear Marli,
I think you're right. It certainly looks like it could grow into Triopha catalinae with an extra bit of orange her and there.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
